Yeah that's true you are guaranteed not to have any grief if you buy from FL. My 700LE from Hong Kong was supposedly being sent EMS but it now turns out they just used ordinary air mail so nearly 2 weeks and still waiting. I also placed an order for a muffler and some other bits which were showing as in stock but now turns out they don't actually have one. So big savings to be had but with some additional grief and delays -take your pick.

Just be carefull with the import duties, to put the value on the parcel as much as it is worth for insurance, you could get hammered on customs charges

Customs are also wise to sellers devalueing parcels now and should they collar you they will ask for your paypal or credit/debit card receipt before they release the item. Then, Royal Mail charge you too!

Royal Mail act as the clearing agent and have a flat charge I believe. Customs charge will be the VAT currently at 15% on the total including shipping. You would be looking at about £100.

i got my t rex 600le combo from hk this month for £442.00 posted and a ys 50st from the states for £117. posted

As some of you know, i've been looking into prices both in the UK and HK for my soon to own 700LE.

I already have a YS91, Gyro, 2in1 and Gov, so was just looking for an airframe. This is what I came up with:

1, Kit only from Century (HK) £333.35
P+P £40.71
Blades (UK) £80.00
Servos (DS610x3 UK) £120.00
Tail Servo (DS650 UK) £48.49

=£622.55

2, Combo Kit Century (HK) £560.50
P+P £57.82

=£618.32
Then sell Gov,Gyro,2in1 -£135.00

=£483.32

3, Combo Kit Fast Lads =£694.98
P+P £6.99
=£701.97

Then sell Gov,Gyro,2in1 -£135.00

=£566.97

This makes FL £83.65 more expensive than buying from HK, but I may get hit by tax (knowing my luck I will) and what if bits are missing?

So for the sake of just over 80quid, i'll be getting mine from Fast Lads.

No Tim not had that pleasure yet

[Adrian]

Think ill stick to a u/k dealer ,as you all state if you get hit by customs ect its not cheaper you just get more grief!
Plus if you sell on some bits if you waht it makes it cheaper, ive never had probs with customs before but again there getting wiser

[Rctintin]

I think you are right, customs are getting wise to imports from the east. No way can you get away from it now on large orders from USA.

Also, I've looked at this in another way. If we all got our kits from HK etc., then the guys we trust to supply our spares ( Fast Lads, Midland, etc.,) go out of business, we are truly screwed!!

The prices are getting better now in the UK because of the availability of items on the net from abroad.
