best way is to get someone to bring it back for you!

My B4 and XXX4 were both brought from the US no import duty
got stung on my lathe and 25 pairs of brushes, but still cheaper than UK!

trick when ordering is to try and get them to put a lower value on the shipping so you get charged less import duty and also try and get "GIFT" on there

I imported a camera $1100 CAD and paid like £30 import duty as they put $250CAD on the invoice.

I know we should support shops and I do support 1 shop now, but its not the shops its the importers that control the prices here, but that's a different argument!!
