I got mine from a denmark ebayer! but think that was a one off load. Have you considered using "quidco" in conjuction with buying online from say Expansys? you get a reasonable cash back amount at least. I did this with mine on ebay and got £15. Expansys would give about 6% i think! you have to wait a few months and there is a £5 a year that comes out of your earnings! you should have a read! 
http://www.quidco.com/expansys-uk/
just had a look, you would get £27 back!

Anyone in the UK already bought one? Am I better off importing? taking a trip onto the continent?

Jalyst: Is there a policy that says we should try and combine things in huge uber threads? Personally I prefer shorter, more tightly focussed threads, I can subscribe to the thread without getting lots of mildly related info.
e.g. in this case, the set of people who want to buy an N9 in the UK != set of people who want to buy it from a French retailer.

It was faulty and I returned it (they've been very helpful so far and I'm waiting for a replacement).
Aside from Expansys:
http://www.expansys.com/nokia-n9-sma...k-16gb-219484/
(who currently the 16gb in stock but not 64gb)
There's also Purely Gadgets
http://www.purelygadgets.co.uk/Nokia.../view/34534-BK
http://www.purelygadgets.co.uk/Nokia.../view/34533-BL
I've not dealt with Purely Gadgets before, I have no idea how reliable they are.

Is that they're focused around his/her subject matter, & there's plenty of folks already subscribed, hence lotsa eyes.
Doesn't make sense to have a dozen or more threads of the same or very similar subjects.
Folks aren't going to subscribe to every single one of them etc.
If you search those threads (ideally skim-read much of it if you have time) for "UK" or similar key-words, you'll get lotsa ideas.
Yes of course there's no policy, you're most welcome to start a splinter thread.
But you can 'bet your bottom dollar' that what the OP's asking, has been discussed countless times in those threads.
And is constantly being re-defined, thanks to dialogue back & forth in them.

Anyone had a good experience with www.ipmart.com? Seems far too cheap when I've done the google currency conversion, £365 including delivery..
Always think if something seems too cheap then its not worth the risk.
