+1 prices in europe seem to ve higher than NZ.
Check before you go how to reckaim VAT. In past you needed specialforms for the sellr to complete at the time iof sale ( they are happy to do this). Then you need the item with you in carry on luggage and queue with receipts and forms at a customs office. Adds about an hour to predeparture time and doubles blood pressure but worthwhile fir a EUR1000 item as the refund covers GST you might have to pay on entry to NZ in theory.
If you can get the exact model you want thruogh the nz agent it will be cheaper.the only thing thats cheaper in germany is icebreaker clothes go figure.
Shopping overseas is a great experience. Good excuse to poke around, explore where you might not go, see how hunters are on another continent and maybe get a good souvenir of the trip. Id go for intersting clothes not optics
