dr_mat 0 Posted October 7, 2004 Hmm. This looks familiar... didn't this question get asked before? I don't remember the answer, or even if there was an answer, but it'll be worth checking the search out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted October 7, 2004 They'll ship it but it will cost a fortune, plus customs will stick VAT on it :? If you speak to the supplier and get them to put "Return" or "Gift" on the shipping note, you can avoid the duty. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
