    delivery is slow by air mail but the price the advertise is the price ya pay and theres no postage and they accept paypal

    works out at 46.50 euro

                    Good spot .
                    Although you are almost certain to be caught for customs on it ,as Dealextreme will label it at the correct value.
                    Bear in mind the 518 doesnt have a scart connector and the tuner is also integrated into the mainboard unlike the 500 which is standalone,albeit soldered on.
                    I bought a 518 recently and the tuner was faulty on it ,the build quality looks flimsy to be honest .
