G15 Ebay question (UK)

Two sites are advertising G15s on Ebay UK at £289 and £293 respectively, post free. I have emailed both and so far one has replied to say that these G15 cameras are grey imports but that they include the necessary plug adapters for UK sockets, for charging etc. Both post the cameras from the UK.

I have never bought a grey import but admit I'm tempted by the price (they are £483 on Amazon UK at the moment), a huge difference. Has anyone bought one of these cameras and if so is there any difference other than adapters? Both firms offer the usual guarantees with the cameras and have very high satisfaction ratings on Ebay.

Amazon UK seem a bit inconsistent with their Canon pricing; the G12 was advertised at £300 until Sunday but on Monday morning had jumped to £360! I suppose it'll be reduced again in the Christmas 'sale'...
