| Bought some of my Cosmo gear from here and so far the only place I've found that will ship direct from Japan to the UK. Very quick turnaround times - 4 to 5 days for the goods to arrive at the Parcelforce depot, but then you have to pay import charges on top before you get delivery to your door. Still worth looking at though, despite the additional customs charges http://www.fareastdarts.com/shop/ |

| sounds quick for postage, the customs charges are a real pain though. How much was the value of your order because I was under the impression if it was less than £18 there is no customs tax? |

| Both times it was approximately £40 (plus postage from memory lol) and the import fees were around £20 |

| That will be why then, I wonder if you ask them to mark the package value at £18 would they do it? |

| They may do - but both times they have put the orders in proper boxes with a lot of padding, so I don't know if they would get away with it. |

| Hmmm I may give it a go and ask before I order, thats if they understand english, could always use a translator but I'm wary of them, they may say something insulting! |

| I'm fairly sure the guy who emailed me speaks English - I sent him a query in English and he responded within a couple of days. Just checked some old emails and his name/contact details are: Tomoyuki Kanou International sales representative Far East Co.Ltd. email kanou@fareastdarts.co.jp |
