I am looking to purchase a Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 (non-VC) sometime in the next few months. I have seen that on ebay there are several international sellers that have the lens new for markedly less than, for example, Amazon. I was wondering if anyone has experience purchasing lenses this way. Do you have to pay import duties? If the lens comes from another country, will the warranty still be applicable in the US? Is there something else I'm not thinking of that may make this less of a deal than it seems?
Thanks in advance for the help!
