Airsoft_Mr B Posted December 7, 2014 Posted December 7, 2014 If it's $400 then you're looking at around £250 + £50 tax, probably £12.50 import duty, like £30 shipping, £15 courier fee thing. May as well just get it from the UK. I know there's The Grange and a paintball site who stocks them, don't know about anywhere else.
Supporters Sitting Duck Posted December 7, 2014 Author Supporters Posted December 7, 2014 I was kinda joking about Polar/Tippmann guys........ can't see me paying £400+ for just one gun just yet (I mean gun + tank etc.. so not much change out of near £500 I guess) besides think I would rather make a crude DIY version and jam an airline in a JBBG for laugh (just love to get laughed at - well more than usual - then let rip with a HPA B500A1) was merely saying about AGI now offer shipping to UK that they didn't do previously coz there is loads of stuff over in US - mainly California (jack $hit in Flordida) admit orange tip is a bit of a downer plus import duty lottery....... yes you can get really really stung by import duty - way way over the normal rate sometimes bastid ParcelForce admin fee & HM Customs pulling some random think of a number tax figure out of air Plus the £ - $ exchange rate is crap atm - was nearly $1:80 to quid about Easter but now just over $1:52 ish All the same there is some nice stuff on Evike & AGI for us "limey's" to dream & drool over even though it appears really bloody cheap - I know it will cost me a bit when stuff lands in UK Me buying an expensive gun - nah I think I might do that say in 6 months time - maybe longer first I gotta stop breaking the cheaper guns before I even dare risk that much on a gun I'll no doubt fffk up Airsoft_Mr B 1
Supporters Sitting Duck Posted December 9, 2014 Author Supporters Posted December 9, 2014 slightly off topic but just got full refund from Evike so even though they weren't brilliantly fast shipping At least I got a full refund without hassle - shame it is so close to Xmas or I could wait. Still at least I might go shopping stateside in New Year either back at Evike or at AGI now Airsoft_Mr B 1
DX115FALCON Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 sees the ASGI Guns For $1 sale being advertised:
springs Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 just thought i would mention that i've just received an email from someone in new zealand stating that they have just received my items that i ordered from Airsoft GI. i did notice on the tracking that it had appeared in New zealand and that it was taking a rather odd way round the world to get to me here in the UK.
Supporters Sitting Duck Posted December 10, 2014 Author Supporters Posted December 10, 2014 WTF ??? - what is with yanks & shipping ffs (I know they joined WW2 a bit late but didn't realise the reason was they got lost coming over ffs) Well lets hope the Kiwi guy ordered a nice PolarStar or something then for your chrimbo pressie Jeeeez - think I stick to shopping in Poland & China from now on
