Rich has asked me to post a bit of information about shipping and duty costs, on the kits etc ., so here goes - this is taken directly from a mail to Rich about consolidating shipping .
"Shipping a consignment to me in UK does mean only one duty payment per shipment, as I can then re ship within EU countries without paying any additional duty, since I only pay 17.5% duty here (UK) , in some countries it goes up to 22%, so there is a saving involved. Depending on numbers, I would devide the duty up between orders and ask teh individual customers to pay postage plus the shared duty, I'd estimate the saving to be about 5% on average as internal (EU) postage is a lot less that freight shipping direct from USA ."
This could mean a slight delay as Rich would wait on sending the shipment , but as he send it tracked and traced , I can pre warn UK customs and fast track it through on average 10 working days from door to door . |
