I was reading somewhere that some things that a manufactured here in the UK are cheaper to by in the US and other parts of the world and that's when they have been shipped there. Just another case of rip of Britain.

I do support Model Shops here in the UK but i also buy from HK. Wonder how many people from abroad buy RC kit from the UK

The UK is the soft touch capital of the World and i can't see it changing anytime soon.
Why do people always moan about rip off britain, the reason we have taxes and such like is because we have things like NHS, Income support, Disability allowance, education etc, these all need to be paid for these other countries you keep talking about i fairly sure don't have all these things in place, and i'm sure if for example you had to pay say £40 every time you payed a visit to to your Dr you would soon be moaning, you just have to accept that if you want these things then they need to be payed for and that is by us tax payers.
