Prices go down?
« on: November 20, 2008, 01:21:15 AM »
I just went to order a calibrated set of Painkillers.  I almost hit the button to buy when thank god I noticed I had 3 sets of different pickup sets in my shopping basket im sure from previous visits to the online shop....... Probably around 800.00 us dollars LOL

Anyway I noted the prices were less expensive in sterling pounds than they were a few days ago.

I could have sworn the Nailbombs and the Painkillers were 190 sterling.

Now they are 161.70 sterling.  Anyone notice this?

Don't think the pick up prices have changed.  The arse has fallen out of the pound, So you will be getting a lot more for your dollar at the moment.

Which is rubbish for me I was thinking about importing an RMC wah from the states

If you're ordering from the USA you don't have to pay UK VAT, which is 17.5%.

So,

(100/117.5) * £190 = £161.70
