Import fees for kit delivered from USA to UK?

Post by stevegullick »

Hi
I want to buy a Stewmac kit, the 000 rosewood. Are there any members on this Forum, living in the UK, who have had a kit delivered from US to UK and can tell me what they paid in import fees? Thanks.

Hi,

it cost an extra £60 for my martin 000m kit. Which I thought was a tad expensive!! We don't half get ripped off in this country!!

I hope this helps!!

Ki t has now arrived and for uk users, the additional cost was £92.00 on top of the shipped price!

Looking forward to making a start.
