Yep, and then don't forget that you have to hire a customs agent to get it into the country and then you have to pay shipping again to get it from the US port of entry to your house. 

It ended up costing me close to $1,000 more than the quoted price to actually lay hands on it. Then hassle of trying to hire a customs agent in  Carolina when I live in Texas. Then I got to spend hours of extra hassle time and long distance charges calling and faxing and fed ex'ing customs forms back and forth.

Great fun!
