Manic Moore Posted August 2, 2006 Report Posted August 2, 2006 Lots of how to fit but where do they come from? Is there only one supplier and one price? Quote
Paul D Posted August 2, 2006 Report Posted August 2, 2006 Best price I found was a guy selling them on E-Bay. You could get them from the USA but by the time you pay the import tax / carriage etc. it isn't worth it ( unless you have your own personal courier ). PS: Off to the states on Monday, so will have a look whilst there if I get time. Quote
Afishionado Posted August 2, 2006 Report Posted August 2, 2006 As Paul says... unless you have your own personal courier I got mine from sales@emarineworld.com in California who's price is $169.95 for the ST1290-60's inc free P&P to a US mainland address. Extra for UK of course but I was lucky enough to have a friend coming over from the US and had it posted from So Cal to NY. Currently at todays exchange rate the UK charge on your credit card for the $ transaction would be Quote
Manic Moore Posted August 2, 2006 Author Report Posted August 2, 2006 Anyone know what the vat + import duty percentage is likely to be? Quote
Paul D Posted August 2, 2006 Report Posted August 2, 2006 17.5 % VAT and something like 6% ? for import duty. However, the carriage charge will make it unviable importing ( hence the need for a mule ! ) Quote
Manic Moore Posted August 2, 2006 Author Report Posted August 2, 2006 I think that still be about Quote
Newboy Posted August 2, 2006 Report Posted August 2, 2006 Don't forget Royal Mail make a custom charge between Quote

Swainiac Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 Gordon, I'm hoping to nip back across to Florida again at the end of this month, for another couple of weeks fishing. If you havent decided by then, let me know. Rich Quote
Manic Moore Posted August 3, 2006 Author Report Posted August 3, 2006 Rich It would certainly be worth hanging on for the best price I can get in the UK is Quote

Adam F Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Nauticus-Smart-Tabs-...1QQcmdZViewItem Email this guy - he is the one who supplied a few of us - he doesnt have any of the 12x9 listed at the moment, but Im sure he should have some. Quote
Swainiac Posted August 4, 2006 Report Posted August 4, 2006 Gordon, my mule isnt languishing around in quarantine for months on end, so if you need them, I'l bring them back ok?? Rich Quote
Manic Moore Posted August 4, 2006 Author Report Posted August 4, 2006 Thanks for the offer Rich. But I had a brainwave last night. Rang my Auntie in CA and she has agreed to send them on as a "birthday gift" so I may even get off from paying the government. and only $141. Quote
Newboy Posted August 4, 2006 Report Posted August 4, 2006 Doubt it, the HM Custons are cracking down on goods coming in, I had some fishing braid sent costing about Quote
