Having something shipped from outside the US!

Postby Cyclops » Fri Dec 13, 2013 12:01 am

HOLY CR@P! I'm on the hunt for King Of Arms 0.40g 6mm Bbs that are orange or tan color. Been thru sooooo many web sites that say they have them and I place an order and I get an EMail back later that day or next saying they are out of stock. I know they are discontinuing these Bbs but I like the color so I can see them fly thru the air. Finally found someone that has them!!!! Bad thing it's in the UK!!! They want $32.67 for 2000 rounds. Price is high but not that bad considering I'm using it for a bolt action gun. Shipping! That's crazy..... The CHEAPEST route would cost me $57.21! Bringing my total to $89.88 per 2000 rounds! No wonder they still have some in stock. Just blew my mind. First getting excited about them having some and then going thru the order process and BAM. They grab you where the sun don't shine.....

Shipping seems excessively high for 2-3 pounds of bb's.
I'm the osiris of this.

Excuse me " Hamster ", but I don't believe that you used any exclamation points in your post.

He brought out the quotations. Stuff is getting real.

Shipping nowadays, especially overseas, isn't going to be financially easy. From my experience, you've just gotta bite one and let it happen. At least, when it comes to gear, kit, and bb blasters. (Try getting something from Norway, Poland, or China. All are *fun*.*

Though, the aforementioned plan of going to BB Bastard is solid plan.
I'd tell you to be careful. It's not the Tank you need to fear.
