About a year ago I purchased my Olympus 90-250 f 2.8 at a considerable savings 
from buydig.com. Not one problem from buydig.

Hi again,

Well, the plot thickens, and doing some research on the Internet shows  
two pretty good deals on the FL-50R, with some advantages/disadvantages:
-Amazon.com: current price $410 (!).
  Advantages: payments can be made from Europe, and fast (and free?)  
shipping to a Seattle address. Also, when getting an Amazon credit  
card, there is a further $30 discount. Interesting and tempting,  
though I'm a bit apprehensive of getting another credit card...
  Disadvantages: 8% VAT, bringing the total price to $442.
-Buydig.com: current price $407 (!).
  Advantages: free shipping for 7-9 business days, or other options,  
out of which the most interesting one seems to be a 3-6 business days  
shipping option for $9,95 (all by Fed-Ex).
  Disadvantage: the shop doesn't allow non-us payments. :( - I'll have  
to check if my sister could advance pay it then.

So, those seem to be the best deals, and unfortunately I couldn't find  
a deal that also includes the FL-CB02 hot shoe cable.

Anyway, can anyone attest to buydig's reputation? Is it a good/ 
reliable place to buy, also shipping-wise, or would Amazon be the  
better choice? In case of the latter, has anyone tried the Amazon  
credit card deal, and if so, are there any hides catches with that?

Cheers!
Olafo
