[sdiy] UK guys - Rapid EndLine Sale Today!

[Clarke Robinson]

Probably someone over at Rapid would like to get their hands on a 
Bugbrand Modular!

Congrats on the deal...any progress you could make on overseas shipping 
rates would be much appreciated by us Yanks. Free int'l shipping for a 
week for S-DIY members?

Here's to hoping!

- Clarke
