Importing PB Markers??

[robert smith]

Hi,

I want to buy a Angel 05 Speed from ebay.com in America, i can get one for around £300 with P+P, but are they alowed to ship to United kingdom? Do we have rules on importing paintball guns? or do we get taxed or anything?

Any replies would be appresiated.

I'm pretty sure they are allowed but yes, you will be subject to import tax. A disadvantage of buying abroad though is that if something goes wrong with the gun, you'll have to send it back to the US which will take ages and cost a bomb.

EDIT: Ah, its on eBay, even less tech support in that case

Worth bearing in mind before committing yourself to it.

is this worth it?

WDP Angel 05 Speed (Black Barley used) with pants, jersey, gearbag, harness, pods, and goggles.

for £250? (Not included P+P)

(How much would it cost for import duties guessing?)

ok import tax is random

just imported a gun and missed the bullet but its best to budget that you will get hit by it

you can get the guy to tick the gift box and it might help

as for a angel 05 speed iam certain you could one here closer to £200 but.. dont quote me not into angels so dont check the prices

give lips a call as well i think they sell 2nd hand angels

Right, im being ohnest here i dont have a clue about paintball markers,

i just thought the Angles 05 speed looked cool and looked like a good gun to buy? are they good? hard to maintain?

Heres the marker i was looking at.

They won't show them on their site - Give 'em a ring and they should be able to help.

Any thing imported into the Uk from outside the EU is liable for VAT see
should help but it does seem to be random if they catch it !
