I'm seeing Alibaba sells these with some steep shipping costs. Anyone know of the best (& reliable) place to buy in terms of cost?

Shenzhen Kingstar International Trade Co., Ltd. on Aliexpress. Just bought that very NVR, including DHL shipping for $252. Requested and received a Paypal invoice, and paid by Paypal. Very smooth, 6-day delivery. YMMV.

Thanks for the info. Looks Like Shenzhen Kingstar has it shipping to US for $288. That's pretty reasonable.

On a somewhat related topic, I was noticing that the POE model is not much more money. Since my current 24 port Cisco POE switch is full, would be nice to add another 16 ports for only $50-100 more. Question I have, when using these POE ports on the NVR, are the POE cameras available on the regular network so that other devices (besides the Dahua NVR) can access the cameras? Or does the NVR have its own internal closed network for all the POE ports? In a nutshell, are the NVR POE ports bridged to the uplink port on NVR?
