Anyone ordered from these guys, they are stocking the outrage evo 55 muffler for £25 and with shipping comes to about £38 which is a bargain. I'm I likely to get import tax from these guys?

They're good.

..but you will most likely get stung at customs.

[cupracing]

Ok cheers Paul, just been on one of the import calculators and it works out around fiver so that's still a saving

[Jamin_00]

It's a chance as to whether you get stung or not but in any case you will still save! Just either a little or a lot

[cupracing]

Well all ordered, I got the conversion wrong actually it's £34 with shipping. Not too shabby

[Jamin_00]

If you used PayPal they don't give the exact exchange rates so they can take a little more from you

You're not wrong, just checked PayPal and its £36. Yet another way they rob us blind!

Every time I've ordered parts from the US I've been stung for import tax.

Yeah they are good. Use paypal though - I've read about a few guys having trouble with credit card fraud which seems to be linked to ordering at helidirect.

No one is picking them out individually, but perhaps their credit card payment provider is lacking in security or have a hole somewhere.

I never get hit for tax in France, but the uk is a bit tougher on this stuff that's marked as gift etc.
