This is Global ebay purchase and is good service by any means, Just add cost for step down transformer since this will be a US 110 V product.

You can also try this

Maybe SYW will provide a Step down converter for free, they did so earlier ?

Read the disclaimer below on same ebay link.

" All international buyers: do your homework about custom issue before making purchase, we are not responsible for that."

This item is from Ebay Global buy...Customs etc are included.
Quote from Ebay global buy :
"
Is buying on Global EasyBuy expensive compared to buying directly from the international site?

When you buy an item on Global EasyBuy, you pay customs duties and international shipping charges along with the item cost; which allows us to deliver the item to you without any hassle. These charges will apply even when the item is bought on the international site, except on the international site it will not be a part of item cost.

Woww, this is a mouthwatering deal. If there is a good step down transformer available for 3-3.5K I would buy this one!!

Now the price is Rs. 17952/-. Also the question mark before the price shows this message:

This includes shipping charges, export duties levied by the exporting country and customs duties, customs clearing charges, service tax, insurance and other charges applicable in India. Octroi or any other applicable municipal entry taxes will be payable by you before delivery.

great buy, check with the seller if it has a switchable PSU (220/110v). stepdowns are not great when working with equipment like amps or equipment with motors (speed-dependent)...but are ok for low wattage equipment like pre-amps, tuners, etc.
