Best canon deals for Europe.

I'm looking forward to buy the new 100-400 the 24-70 2.8II and the 16-35 4II + 17 t&s or the 11-24 depending on the reviews.
I remember reading in CR about a store almost certainly from HK, although it might have been from Singapore, that shipped equipment to the UK at slightly better prices than B&H us prices.
I remembering people either praising it or complaining about their delivery delays.
Does anybody know that store and other options for canon equipment delivered to Spain.
Thanks.

I think it was http://www.purnimadigital.com. I posted here last year about that site. Company seems to be in France. They buy there products in Hong-Kong, and are shipped to London and from there to Europe. It's really grey import as the VAT is never payed. The products however are OK. I did buy my 16-35 f4 over there. I got it in Belgium within 7 to 10 days. However, they did remark that if any customs fees are added during the import, that you need to pay them. So you may have an advantage of 20% but if the package is checked by the customs, you loose the benefit. So, after that purchase, I didn't buy anything else anymore to avoid the risk of custom duties/fees. If you buy it privately you might for sure take the risk, but look carefully at the prices as not every product has an advantage of 20% to the normal European prices.
