Buying SEIV from the UK?

[Growltigga]

Yeah, I would like to know this. Another question, has any Brit out there who has ordered SEIV classic or SEIV gold ever been sent a letter by FedEx wanting £10 in import duty - I bought SEIV Last year and it cost me close on £55 what with shipping and import duty

It is one of the reasons why I am being put off gold

I received my copy by Global Priority Mail -
it is USA Federal Mail service, completely unrelated to Federal Express. There were no duty on the shipping. Don't remember exact shipping cost, but it was around £10.

Oleg, how did you use that service?
I just checked on the Shrapnel website again and the only shipping option I can see is the $19 fedex one

[oleg]

I don't know - I just ordered in Shrapnel and
it came via Global Priority Mail.

I remember Richard mentioned that all shipping outside USA is made this way, and FedEx inside USA. May it was indeed $19 ( £15 ).
But I am asolutely sure there were no extra charges by customs.

Stategic Plus are my local shop (about 1/2 mile away). They are a specialist computer wargames supplier. They tend to be a little expensive but have always given good advice. I buy from them because of the advice and the 'support the little guys' thing. Worth the cost of a pint every now-and then.

I must admit I have not bought SE4 gold yet because i was a little offended by the £ to $ straight conVersion. But sooner or later i will crack.
