Well, to make a long tory short, my mother is currently in Finland for a week, and I was wondering if there is a chance that I can tell her to buy a Prometeia or Vapochill for me for a better price and bring it back home...

I think these are produced in Denmark or something....well pretty close. So basicaly I was wondering if you know any shops in Finland (helsinki mostly) that sell them for a good price....or is it the same as resellers in my country?

To help you make a directi comparison, the Mach2 here is sold for 686 euro + VAT , and the Mach2 ST for 516 euro + VAT. The CPU kits are all 76 euro + VAT.

I would appreciate some fast replies because I need to tell her tomorow or the day after if I am going to purchase such a thing...

it might be better, but i doubt she will be able to bring any pressurize equipment with her on a plane. You have to compare the price you can have buying it there (call them) to the price you can get it in your country.

Finland has 220V 50 Hz units, also they are heavy and big...not exactly ideal

220V is what I want, same here in Greece...
Do I need to pay some custom tax or something for bringing it to Greece? I think Finland is in the EU like Greece is, so there is no need right?

I would appreciate any links from Finnish stores if there's any Finnish guy here...
