Evening all,

Early next year I will be traveling to Thailand, and have read that a lot of lenses are made there. Would it be worth my while waiting until I am over there to buy some lenses? With the Aussie Dollar strong, and the 7% VAT refund at the airport upon departure, as well as local prices possibly being cheaper I'm thinking it might be a good opportunity to buy a few.
Reading the forum a lot of people buy "grey imports", and buying direct from the country they are made could be a way to save a few bucks.... or more likely simply buy more stuff!

Any thoughts?
