I'm in a similar position. Looking at moving house :rolleyes:. I have the money now but may not when the missus has chosen a new matt cave. I could sub you if you want Jimmy as long as it is just a month or two.

Sorry Dave but you would be on your own on that one, I am only doing this once plus you would miss the production run in Mid November. No offence but your shout.

Hi Mike, absolutely no offence taken :)
I only metioned this as a couple of others had said about a preference to wait till they have more money, I was offering to make it more easy if a split group buy was needed/wanted e.g. we need 5 on this run and 5 on another run to make it worth it.

Dave.

Just learned, the chargers would be supplied with an 80mm pulley but we can spec 75mm and 70mm if wanted.

If it get's pulled out for customs inspection, Parcel Force will bill you for their clearance fee plus the import duty and VAT before releasing it to you (and will pay Customs & Excise). thumbsup

It's hit and miss. I've had lots of things from overseas and a few years back 80% of the stuff would get through without any charges but these days (and every time I've bought something VX related :angry: ) they seem to have a poke around at the package and I've been stung.


If you FexEX it you'll go through their own customs - no clearance/handling fee and it only needs to be paid after delivery. completely offsets the cost of using Fedex

Good to know as FedEx is the courier we will be using.
