Used MPC 2500 from the US to Europe

Hey

This is my first post, so i hope it is the right forum.
I`m wondering, if some people have experience with MPC's from the US, wich were shipped to Europe.
Cause I'm about to buy a used MPC 2500, and in the US it's much cheaper than here (Belgium)
Is it "dangerous" for the MPC? I mean, how are the "postmens" treating such packages? And what about the Customs? How much does it cost?
Beside that, in the moment, my sister is now in the states... Could she just take it with here, without paying the Customsfees?

I know, a lot of questions, but i realy want to be sure, before i'm going to spend about 800$...
I hope someone can answere few of them.
Thanks in advance

Greetings
Elias

PS: Sorry about my bad english. As i said, i'm from belgium

i think your sister would be the safest and cheapest method

hey, thanks for the fast reply.
Yeah, i think too. But could she take it with here on the flight??
But beside that, she has 2 little kids... And it's allready stressy i think. So I don't know if i want to stress her even more, since an mpc 2500 is heavy isn't?

it has some weigh to it, she could fit it in 17" laptop bag and take it with her as a carry on

if you end up getting it shipped there will be custom fees depending on your country, I think it's usually close to %10 but dont quote me on that
