ah tight, chears for the help. guess it shouldn't take too long now.

If only import duties were OUR problem. New laws make it nearly impossible to import any more markers.

3 days from US to UK - 12 days in Customs - should be delivered today - £148 customs charges...



Wonderful.

Paid £580 for it...

or a $950 marker not marked down as a gift = £138 customs charge

Gifts get charged.

Only warranty repairs and i think item for you just to take a look at, can't think what they're called, don't get charged customs.
