I wanted to buy a Canon SX100 IS. It seems the price abroad is almost half of indian price. Well, I am not lucky enough to have any relative abroad, so I was thinking I should try Alpha in mumbai. Will the price there be cheaper (like abroad)?

It will definitely be cheaper if you get it w/o bill.

Should I do that? I mean, how common is it for a camera to get damaged to make the extra price I pay for 'with bill' purchase worthwhile?

It could be anything man! I mean try to get things with bill means avail the warranty if get any problem.
I mean without bill, its just matter of luck!
