Is buying a iphone 5s from the us worth it?

    I was thinking of buying a iphone from the us since it much cheaper than it is in ireland, But on ebay it says there is "Import charges" I was wondering would it be cheaper to myus.com and then get them to ship it to me. Would import charges still count or not? and would it be cheaper to just buy one here? Thanks in advance.

    If you get caught for customs duty it will set you back. Depends what you can buy it for in the US really

    Duty if applicable, + 23% on top of the whole lot. Plus Apple may tell you to send it back to the US if it ever needs warranty repair.
