Hi,

I'm located in the EU and since Dahua and Hikvision is banned in the US, Chinese ebay sellers of 5842 and 5442 models disappeared.
All I can do is buying from EU sellers at 2* or 3* the Chinese price. But even their inventory seems depleting.
AliExpress also hides auctions as soon as my location discloses.
So I have no idea how could I buy these models with T-ZE S3 suffix in the future at affordable price, or to buy at all.
Do you know any possibilities in the EU in the range of approx. < 3 - 400 EUR?
Any idea is welcome.

Thanks,
Gyula

As another alternative - since you are looking within the EU - I just ordered a Dahua camera from MEGATEH.eu. It is a major retailer based in Estonia, and I have read nothing but positive things about them here in Germany. However, this is my first time ordering from them myself. Their prices are significantly lower than what I would pay at a specialized Dahua dealer here in Germany; the pricing is roughly on par with AliExpress.


The reason I didn’t buy from Andy - like I have in the past - :) is that he doesn’t stock the specific Dahua model I wanted.

Hi,

Thank you for the thorough answer.
Megateh is good at the current discount, I've also just found them.
But keep in mind they have S2 models from both 5442 and 5842.
5442 S2 is good but 5842 S2 night vision is a bit blurry, so S3 would be the excellent choice for that money.
Just woke up, will ask Andy about it.

Thank you,
Gyula
