import charges?

[TRF_Tastic]

I think that point Im trying to make with the quote of the prices is the following, if it can be shipped to USA and sold there at a profit for £200 why is it £270 over here and dont give me sales tax or any other excuse. There is still a vast profit being made be A the manufacturer, B the Shop.

Now do I want to pay that premium for a British product?? err no and certainly not when I can run the gauntlet and get it shipped here for less even £10 less is enough for me to try my luck.

I and many otheres dont have a vast pot of cash and I look for the best deals where ever I can find them and Im not fussy, if you offer me a world beating price I will shop with you, if its the shop in Japan or Hong Kong then bet your ass I'm going to send my business over there.

Sorry if this sounds like a rant, but I am fed up with rip off UK, we are taxed then taxed some more for our luck and then whatever we think we have left is taxed as well. I know shops have to make a profit and so do distributers so its not all your fault however, I do think that margins can be cut a little and not hurt anyone too badly, you never know you might sell more.

Sorry rant over and sorry if I offended anyone.
