Ok, I make this

13 road rash kits - including me

1 standard kit

Road rash kits are $62.20 each

Standard kit is $53.60

So with current rates and my delivery to you guys, can we say £37 for road rash kits and £32 for the standard kits.

Just waiting for their payment options then I will proceed.

Please DO NOT send me any money yet. I will add back here when I know how they want payment.

This list generated here is final. Therefore I would be grateful if I am NOT left with any kits.

I will accept Paypal or Cheque, but if paying by cheque, your kit will not be sent until it has cleared.

I'll keep you all posted.

Don't forget that you may be caught for customs charges with an order of that value.

That's a very pertinent observation Eamonn. There may well be a liability for import duty and the VAT on the total amount, so best to check with Customs.

Yep, probably best to work out what the duty would be now and divide it up between the members so it can be included in the payment.

The charge could always be refunded in the happy event of no customs charges.

Without trying to teach MGOracle how to suck eggs , he should also make sure to include an extra charge to cover Paypal fees. I was caught out with that myself .

Hmm...

Yes - I had forgotten about customs charges as well.

I'm still keen but, depending on the notional customs charge per capita, it's beginning to look less inviting.

I don't know how it works in the UK, but I have found that it always best to have stuff sent from the States via USPS. In Ireland, all USPS packets are delivered at this end via the Postal Service who charge €5/£3.50 for the privilege of collecting the customs charges.

Fedex/DHL etc can charge an "administration" fee of up to €30 for the same service .
