Considering how sought after the Silver Streak is, that is a bargain.

Ok a few items would require changing if you wanted it original, but $75 shipping is a steal, but I guess the import tax may put some people off.

owt over $30 not marked as a gift or promotional sample etc incurs customs duty at prevailing rate for shipped goods, VAT and an £8 handling charge from parcel farce or royal snail hope that helps ;)

so am I expectng Mr Postie to arrive with my frame and his hands out for some cash? :'(

He'll have probably jumped around on the frame for a bit in the back of the van before he delivers it too - nice!

seems a bit hit and miss I have had items sent where no code was used and avoided customs and others where I had childs bike parts scrawled all over the box n still been stung, luck of the drawer, if you ask for the tracking number if its coming via parcel farce you can see how long it takes to clear customs, owt over a day usually turns up after a letter advising me to pay up  :tickedoff:
