If I bought a US/Candadian Gamecube, I have seen one for £150 inc P&P ex VAT and import duties, Would it work here in the UK?

I could bring one back in may but I am waiting to see what the release date and price will be for the europe release.
And to find out if I will need to declare it at customs (I probably would have to) and how much tax/duties I would need to pay.

Incase you haven't realised, someone's selling a black Jap/US GC, with about 5/6 games and controllers. He hasn't named a price though, you must bid.

Check out some importers. They usually give you the step-down converter and the cables u need to play on a PAL TV.

you would probably need a power converter and a television that can take the US signals NTSC or NSTC (something like that)
