Our orders are generally under VAT but I've seen them show up with the £8.00 simply because they were opened or too big to fit in the mail slot.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12009402133558129071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158528358884398247.post-88769876880568004032012-01-20T00:05:20.528+00:002012-01-20T00:05:20.528+00:00more or less - you can't have your parcel unti...more or less - you can't have your parcel until you pay the duty (VAT) and the exhorbitant Post Office handling fee, £8.00. It's an odd system because a lot of the time it's not charged at all. Random checking maybe.dwartisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07355013748362310480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158528358884398247.post-14854833126704691872012-01-19T22:57:25.013+00:002012-01-19T22:57:25.013+00:00So do they like demand money then or somthing?So do they like demand money then or somthing?Simon Quinton https://www.blogger.com/profile/18001946192905517180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158528358884398247.post-24139662289105151162012-01-19T21:43:38.059+00:002012-01-19T21:43:38.059+00:00Hey B.

The postie brings it to the house - unfortunately i was out so because there is a fee to pay parcels are returned to the depot (not the PO just up the road) so a 40min round trip required. The guys there know me quite well now and even commiserate if the customs nab me!<br />Thanks MJ - it was one of 18 wheels actually (I've got thee kits here) so that's good by any standard. As I said on facebook - great product and I will order a few more.dwartisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07355013748362310480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158528358884398247.post-3159756737092561062012-01-19T18:53:52.929+00:002012-01-19T18:53:52.929+00:00Wow, thank you for the incredible review!

We'll be sure to start adding some bubble wrap to the packaging.<br /><br />On the wheel with the mold slippage -- let me know if you'd like us to ship a free replacement. We discovered that the right (starboard) side mold had some slip issues only after they were shipping. Like you said, it's only one of the six wheels... but a replacement is available.<br /><br />And now to share this review far and wide! Thanks again.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12009402133558129071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158528358884398247.post-86897386333551411432012-01-19T18:07:59.001+00:002012-01-19T18:07:59.001+00:00They look nice.

I hear about it often but have not order from abroad before.<br /><br />Could always sell the spare turret bit on ebay to claw some of the fee backSimon Quinton https://www.blogger.com/profile/18001946192905517180noreply@blogger.com
