hi munch,
yes were off to the big apple as i have my 10yr visa now. just got my dollars at marks n spencers @ the great rate of $2.04 to the pound with NO commision either !! rather good i think.
scotty

See if they let you out this time!
Have a good time.

We are investigating a 4 day NYC break next Spring half term.

big h,
give expedia a look - we booked every part of the trip on one site + sightseeing tickets in advance for a very good price. sure takes a lot of the hassle out of planning a trip.

coz they are thick ??

or maybe they can appreciate quality better than us.....

But I doubt thats it!!!

I just got an Amazon.com parcel. The external customs declaration was for $66. I got charged £5.69 VAT PLUS the £8 that Royal Mail charge for handling the transaction. The guy at the Royal Mail office reckons that parcels get picked on at random.

well thats not too sad chris.
thanks.

i know its not floyd but just received the robert plant boxset nine lives from caiman usa and there was NO SURCHARGE when delivered.
fingers crossed for the same with floyds boxset.

Good luck Scotty! They'll be so busy tagging mine that yours will breeze through unnoticed!

hi munch,
i have had the boxset for about 6 months. this 2nd ones a xmas prezzie. im the wrong person to ask about anything zepp as im a big fan !!
BUT rest assured its well worth getting this boxset as everything is remastered and the dvd is a nice touch too although nothing special. to sum up its a lovelly presented collectors box, sounds great and is available at caimen usa through amazon priced at around £43. i make that about £4.70 per disc.
BARGAIN !! scotty

Wow bad luck. Here in NZ it seems that unless the GST is worth $50 they are generally not picked on,. but most likely to get you if the duty is over $50...

hi chris,
same here - all they wanted was approval of slight delay and an increase of around 8 dollars
so ive approved mine as the nearest price over here was at around £150 ! whereas the us version is $198 approx - £98 (still good value)
they say delivery estimate around the 24th dec (yeah right) fingers crossed.
we will probably be passing each other over the atlantic !!

Wishful thinking I fear! But I hope you have a great trip. New York does Christmas very well!
