RE: [xl7] Re: How much would it cost to send an XL-7 to the UK from the US?

2004-02-19 by Stu

I can get hold of an XLead ROM for around 100 quid in the UK. If you buy an
XL-7 off ebay in the US, hopefully being secondhand (probably) it will get
past customs ok. If not, expect to pay an extra 17.5% (VAT) plus extra
charges (they charged me an extra 8 quid for paying the customs charges on
my behalf when I imported some E-MU cds). It's possible it will get through
customs without incurring extra charges, just don't count on it.

Get in touch with me off list and maybe we can come to a deal that benefits
us both - if not, I'll still try to help you get a good deal in any way I
can. I myself looked at importing an xx-7 from America a while back, as they
seemed to be much cheaper, but once you've factored in shipping and possible
customs charges, the savings are not worth the extra risks involved. Mind
you, the exchange rate is much better now than it was...

Regards,

Stu
