Yes the price sounds much better from them at approx. £925 but then there is 20% VAT and import duty (unknown) to pay on top.

From USA you will be charged VAT on the total (declared) value, including the shipping cost.

IIRC there's no (or very little) duty but the carrier will charge an admin/handling/ransom fee of around £15 - £20 for the privilege of handing over the VAT.

It's still a lot but way less than £1,600 - probably more like £1,200 tops...
