Shipping isnt necessarily cheap though, it depends what youre after.....all the shipping rates in the states have risen just like ours but I would highly recommend them :daumenhoch:

Yes :daumenhoch:

I think if you open an account it works it out for you at the final (final) checkout. It's been a while since I ordered stuff (6 months?) but Justin is top notch and only charges what it costs. Megga fast delivery as well :coolsmiley:

Post by: skippyg on July 15, 2013, 06:02 PM: will I have to pay any duties on this or is that included in the shipping ?

Post by: Spen69 on July 15, 2013, 06:03 PM: Duty is the gamble you always take. If it's worth less than £35 (I think) then you don't.

What are you buying as that would help answer a lot of your questions?

Post by: GavinDavis on July 15, 2013, 06:08 PM: I ordered about £150 ish worth of stuff and they marked it as gift.....they rock! :daumenhoch:

It's always good to look at the 'busted' pages of local criminals who've been caught/fined/banged up. They use the paper as wrapping/protective lining
