Sounds wrong.....  a small packet under 2kg is $20 pounds... so even if you send them as a left and a right thats $40 tops........   where you in desperate need ?

i ended having to grab these as you dont see many size 12 come up ever.  and new $400+ $200 for the s/ shoe, im not that keen.

But wearing my heavy Tech8's is killin my quads etc there too heavy to keep in the air all the time, so somthing little might help me enjoy it more. I havent been able to walk for 2 days everytime i go out.

freaky
how much stuff have you got out of england
i get a lot of stuff through antig (just near somerset)
dave perry helps my wifes freinds send me stuff that sellers wont send to me in aus.
very heavy ariel 500 swing arm cost me 30 pounds to get here.paid for air mail but good old uk mail sent it sea got it in 3 months
wife was there last year sent me a hole lot of stuff back you are right about small packages but they slug you big time for larger ones.
she sent me 6 packages of parts the light stuff took about 2 weeks but the bigger stuff took much longer up to 3 months.
jim
ps
i wont be asking dave to help as he sells speedway boots and i dont want to pisss him off as he is a great bloke.

the uk mail is crap they will charge you air mail and send sea just be warned.
it all depends on size of package.if you have soft used daytonas send in 2 packages for cost
then hope you get both
no time to organise from freinds in uk as like us the are off to usa and you could ask dave perry if you deal with him he isnt far from somerset

The cure to all of this drama is to not buy off sellers who won't ship or at least ask them before you bid.
