    Ok my question is has anybody bought from this site specifically the dutch or american site as the amount you can save and its a legitimate company just wondering would the american or dutch deliver to here and do you have to pay taxes on top.

    Hi Jambomac,
    I am aware of a colleague who bought from Calumet Belfast and had no issues, very smooth transaction. He mentioned that Calumet were very helpful and easy to deal with, and made significant saving going this route.
    best of luck,
    Mike

    Thanks for the quick reply but the savings by going with american or dutch is vastly superior to belfast as they seem to be the same price as jessops and there delivery say’s they can’t deliver to the republic of ireland due to it not being a vatable country.

    I dont have any specific knowledge of this company, but with regard to American or
    Dutch, with American you will encounter import charges and VAT but not from Holland
    so if Dutch is cheaper than Belfast then go with them.

    the other consideration is what guarantee comes with the equipment…the USA price may include a one year local guarantee, not a worldwide guarantee…check this also.

    Thanks jenny lets hope.

    tried to find the moon tonight but its hiding :(

    Most pros would have come across Calumet in one form or another. I gather you already found out that they told you to use their EU branches instead: (http://www.calumetphoto.de; http://www.calumetphoto.co.uk). Biggish co. and very good in general; not a discount warehouse as such; customer service A1 though).
