    Hi,

    I'm thinking of buying the Casio Exilim EX-S770. It's just new on the market and looks like an excellent camera. I just have a few questions:

    1. One website wich sells this camera is here. It's priced here for $294 which is about €230. However, i also saw it here for $280...aprox €218. I'm just wondering if you have to be a business owner to purchase off the dell website or can anyone just buy products off it?

    2. Now, these are both american websites. Would i be better off getting it shipped to Ireland or as my parents are heading to the US shortly would i be better off getting it sent to an address where they're staying? It would be a lot cheaper but i'm just wondering would there be any questions asked at customs when they're bring the new camera back into Ireland.

    3. Finally, i've a question about insurance. This camera would obviously come with a manufacturer's warranty...probably 12 months...not entirely sure. However, what would be the best way of getting this camera insured for damage or theft. Would i be better off putting it on my parent's house insurance if it's possible or should i ask the retailer about insurance?

    Sorry about all the questions but i would appreciate any advice. Thanks

    Thats a good price and anyone can purchase from Dell.

    How about just taking it out of the box and having it as your camera and even if it was still boxed there should be no problem. See if you can get it sent direct to ireland or just buy it somewhere else.

    It's covered first by the warenty and sticking it on the house insurance would be a good idea too
