  I bought it from amazon.com for 199$ using my Australian card…..got it shipped to a friend in USA……he sent it to me via USPS for 15$ which I sent him through paypal.
  So, in the end I got it for about 215$

  I have bought from both these online retailers and have never had a problem with either service, delivery or quality of product. You just need to be aware of the warranty conditions.

  I use cameras every working day (both Canon and Nikon) and there are 7 people in my workplace each with two camera bodies and multiple lenses.

  In the last 5 years I have seen one lens sent for repair. So…take a look at these sites:

  http://www.eglobaldigitalcameras.com.au/nikon-af-s-dx-nikkor… - AUD$183.00

  http://www.digitalrev.com/en/nikon-af-s-35mm-f1-dot-8-dx-pri… - AUD$227.00

    thanks for your advice, ill look into these. Amazon looked like a great price from above but to use mail forwarding is a bit inconvenient. Would you happen to know how GST is applied with these websites?

      There is no Tax on international shipments valued less than AUD 1000.

      Sorry for the late reply - Exactly what apna235 said.

      I do know that if you spend over the AUD$1000 on the digitalrev site that they will work out the tax and you can prepay them instead of having to declare the goods once arrived.
