I need some consumer advice!

There is a SONY video recorder which can play both PAL and NTSC
modes. (For those who don't know, this means European & U.S.).
I have seen models in stores in New York (City), but SONY
Corporation of America claims that they do not sell them here and
they are not allowed to be sold in the U.S. Besides possible
service problems, what other problems might I encounter if I buy
one of these things?

By the way, they were in a box with Arabic writing on it, and
sell for around $400.

Thanks in advance.
