Geckodrive G251X / G201X or Leadshine AM822?

[Greeny]

I got them sent via DHL which was very quick & paying import duty & vat was easy as DHL emailed a link to to a payment screen.
Unfortunately, that posting option doesn't seem to be available now, and they also seem to have gone up a bit from US$73.99 to US$78.71, so it might pay to shop around.
They took a couple of days to dispatch & Delivery took about 5 days, so it was about a week in all

Anyway here's a link & breakdown of what i paid.

(I was mistaken I bought 4 not 3).
4@ AM882 (US$73.99 each)= US$296.00 incl postage = £237.63 on my credit card (incl currency transaction fee)
Import Duty & vat was £23 paid direct to DHL
So
237.63
+ 23.00
---------
260.63 For 4 = £65.16 Each
---------

It all went very smoothly for me, but i've only done it once so bear that in mind.

I think the best deal I get on Leadshine AM882s is via Rongsheng-biz on eBay and they'll come out at about £71.00 each shipped with UPS and including the VAT and clearance charge. Still somewhat reticent about going down this route.

Alternatively, I think I can get three unused - but no warranty - Geckodrive G201Xs for £70 each. Or, at just over £100 for three, these DM556 clones look like a good deal - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252922607251

Must make a decision!
