Cheapest way of getting a Panasonic AF-100/101 in Sweden/Europe?

My dad has a Canon XHA1 (I have a 7D) that he's wanting to sell. The one camera he's been looking at is the Panasonic AF-101. They still go for quite a bit here, so he would get somewhere around $4000 just for the camera, quite a bit of money. But he's still about $1500 short of the standard Swedish price (about £3500/€4000, as he's buying without VAT) and that is quite a bit of money. As such we're trying to see if any place sells them cheap? B&H goes for as low as $4700, but there you have a huge amount of import tax, making it more expensive.
Anyway, short and simple question: Does anybody know any place that sells it for less than that? I've tried searching some price comparison sites, but to no avail (also because I know of no real international ones). Any tips?

The one place I did found that had it for a STEAL was called Global Media Pro, but I've heard some bad things about them... Here's the link:

What bad rumors have you heard about globalmedia pro?

I have only good experience with them.

You may be happy to purchase items from a website that doesn't even state the address of the company but I certainly would not. They claim to be a UK company (& a New Zealand company) & it's actually a legal requirement to have proper contact details on an e-commerce website in th UK. Additionally payment is only by bank transfer which should immediately start alarm bells ringing!

Well I heard of people having lots of trouble with them, not receiving their goods, having them damaged and so on.

What did you buy from them?

Yeah, the bank transfer part made me unsure too...
