Right then, John was right about the duty, had to pay £33.92 import VAT, plus a £4 handling fee to the post office, I bought an extra battery and a memory card so the total price before p+p was £207.68,so if you're thinking of ordering from 7dayshop.com, bear these charges in mind, and insist that they ship all the items in one package, cos the £4.00 handling fee applies PER ITEM, also, cos they didn't have everything in stock at one time, they're tryin to charge £5.95 p+p per item, which we are "having words" about, may be a better idea to look at buying from abroad, if you're gonna get hit for taxes, you may as well buy from somewhere with a decent exchange rate! instead of Guernsey which is sterling
You takin the cammin devices with you tho, handy in Norfolk, you can wedge em in a ditch and use em for tent pegs!! :o) For the uninformed, Nick is turning into a gear monster, competing with Mr Corteen in fact, the next purchase I reckon will be a transit van to carry it all in!!
made me mind up, just ordered one from www.7dayshop.com for £169, wonderful thing this internet,........... wonder if it'll ever catch on?? ordered an extra battery and memory card at the same time, still got it for £210!!
