I'd stick with buying electronics in the US. Is there anything special about that camera that's different from every other digital camera out there?
Like Cynthetiq said, there are quite a few differences between electronics in the US and Europe. I think there might even be a difference between American and European software...in which case you'd have trouble installing anything to view the pictures onto your computer.
I don't know what you're looking for so I can't point anything specific out to you but it couldn't hurt to see what else is out there.
http://www.dpreview.com/ lists lots of cameras with reviews, information about the model and price quotes. You might want to take a look...
