Richard K Posted June 4, 2021 Share #1 Posted June 4, 2021 Advertisement (gone after registration) Trying to understand why here in Canada I need to pay almost $300US for this battery which costs $170US in Australia (converting the local currency). Any idea? What is it in your country? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitchell35 Posted June 5, 2021 Share #2 Posted June 5, 2021 How can I buy one from Australia? I'd love to have another battery. I don't want to pay 300us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Chef Posted June 6, 2021 Share #4 Posted June 6, 2021 Take a look to see whether sales tax and import duties are included. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmc014 Posted July 5, 2021 Share #5 Posted July 5, 2021 This was a few years ago, but I had just purchased the Leica Q2 and an extra battery in the US and went to Australia on vacation. I went to the Leica store in Sydney and found the battery to be much, much cheaper than in the US. Therefore, even though I only needed two batteries for my casual photography use, I ended up purchasing a third one. The upside is that I don't need to bring my charger on trips that are one week or shorter! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, there is no option to remove it....yes, I am assuming that can be removed by seller/ US residents don't pay VAT. Worst case scenario it amounts to 180 USD plus a a bit depending how it gets paid. Better than $285 at B&H Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
