better online. i purchased my lens 70-200mm f2.8 vrii from adorama and cost me US$2,399.00 which includes door to door services via UPS. and it took 5 days to arrive including custom. plus i paid custom duty of QAR 820.00

in Salam the cost of this lens is QAR11,999.00 which is higher than i spent.
so online is better esp. if you purchase big amount such as that.
