Chris Green Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 DHL, is by far the best. There is a chap that works for RHD / Bidjdm, Russell. If you drop him an email before the order and ask him to mark down the value too, that helps avoid the charges. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Addymk2 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 http://www.biddingninja.comWorth a look aswell, if you order from there Nathan will email you ref what you've got, or fire him an email pre order. Good value in terms of charges etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Good value in terms of charges etc.x2 for nathan. i have a guy i get all my small parts through but anything large i use nathan hes really good and always available on skype if you need any questions answering, with regards to import tax as long as the value of the item is less than £15 you dont pay import tax anything above that you will pay import tax on the item and shipping plus the couriers charge. Sometimes customs may miss your parcel which means no charges but remember they make money off this so they dont miss them often. Its okay marking the price down on items but unless its a tracked service like ems express or dhl express i wouldnt bother as you run the risk of loseing out if the item get damaged or lost and you will only get the marked value back Edited December 31, 2014 by fremyjay Quote Link to post Share on other sites
