After having sold my GMT IIc, I've been regretting it and wanting to get one again. Kicking myself for not realizing the price had gone up a good bit since I had originally purchased.

Anyways, in thinking about buying a new one, I was wondering if there are any international purchase locations that may have better pricing. I travel a good bit around Europe and a bit less in Asia (mostly Hong Kong or Tokyo, though with Thailiand coming up). Any of these places have better pricing on a GMT IIc? Or am I just better off buying from a forum member?

Check out Gassan at Schiphol/Amsterdam. They have really good prices usually.

Best from forum member. Uk is one of best once you get the 20% tax refund though. Then hope you don't get nobbled by customs back home...

both of those options are good. in Schipol its 19% VAT and in Uk it is 20% BUt when worked backwards it is circa 16.5% off ( not 20 as said above) as they add they 20% on so when ot comes off it is a lesser %age
