| Guys, I found this site when I googled Condor flights. Have a look, they have a lot of barrels on there as well. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] |

| Yes they do. Just make sure you are ready for import fees etc... There are a lot of places in the states that carry a lot of the Japanese stuff:

Dartbrokers.com

| Don't know about the rest of the World but the couple of times I've ordered from Japan it's added about another 50% on top due to the import charges. Shame really as those Japs have some really good accessories, especially in the Cosmo flights range. |

| I was thinking of trying a set of those Condor Flights. They work out about $4 cheaper than cosmo stems and flights. |

I think they will still robin hood in the same way a slick stick does exept with them you have 8 diferent spots and the o'ring to slip your point into as opposed to just 2 with the slick sticks. my 2 cents |

| What 8 points Dirty G? Condor flights are all in one plastic flights which don't need O rings with them.
I'm hoping that A180 get some in soon so I can give them a try. |

| Well I got some Codors off Danny and they have been holding up well, I like them.
I tried to order some from that link a while ago but with the shipping it was ridiculous the cost came to nearly £20 for 1 set of flights! |

| 20 quid for 1 set, holy carrots batman. That would mean about $30 for me. I must create an account and see what I get charged. |

| Be careful though, I never seen my charge until later when they sent the bill, so it almost went through on my card, check this thread: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] |

| Aah, thanks for the clarification. I tried the Intelites for a few days and somehow managed to bend one of them but I didn't get any robin hoods. I think I've still got them on my wishlist over at DC as I want to give them a proper go sometime. |

They have the Condor flights and deliver world wide. Really like some of their steel tip darts. Too heavy though. |

| Nice find. Their prices on darts at least are about 8%-10% more than can be found in the states. I put a set of Condor flights into my basket and shipping them cost $15.28 to the states (California) |

Shipping from Japan is up there. Yet I order a lot of titanium hardware from China and they get it to me for next to nothing. Can't imagine why darts are so damn expensive to ship  |

| Thanks for the dartsbuddy link Jimbo - they have some real nice gear in there. Shame they are in Japan though - as well as the shipping costs you will have to factor in the import charges as well. I may put in a small order at the end of the month though. |

| Yeah nice site, shipping for a set of the condor flights still came out expensive at nearly £10 though.
Have we got any Japanese members here who could buy them for us cheaper? |
