I am planning on buying Rigol DS1052E, but Amazon refused to ship to Canada for this, Rigol NA as well. And I finally found this for $316 plus $5 shipping cost with express shipping. Is a a good deal? Any one has a better offer?

    The DS1052E is a nice scope and a good value, I bought mine several years ago from Saelig. It is getting a little old. The new 2000 series is much improved, but starts at almost 3x the price.

    I cannot vouch for the seller you linked to, but from this thread at the eevblog forums it seems like it would be a good idea to have it shipped by regular mail (or at least not UPS or FedEx).

    Wherever you end up buying from, be sure they are an authorized dealer if you want the 3 year factory warranty.

    I agree with Rick the Rigol is a decent scope for the price. We got the exact same model at work and found it does exactly what we want
