| Thats just crazy!
I wonder how many people buy them at that price, also you wont pay tax on the UK shops like we do but maybe your postage charge offsets that perk? |

| Yes Larry, it's crazy for sure - I try to tell people in my leagues to let me know if they want a certain set of darts before paying through the nose elsewhere. |

| Thats what it is like here in Australia, any brand name dart is expensive here. No idea why as they are pricing themselves out of the market. Check this link out for what I mean. http://www.deadeyedarts.com/newproducts.asp |

| Silversaber it could be worth your time negotiating a large order, for the lowest price possible say a thousand dollars worth, then importing them, and selling yourself, see if you can pay a fee to set up a stall at competitions, contact local leagues etc.
At them prices you could even buy to order, easily making $20 a set for yourself, nice little sideline.
With the profit margin the suppliers over are gaining, you could undercut them and still make a killing. |

LOL yeah, good idea. I think Larry is secretly buying lots of UK darts though and he sells them to all the oldies in Florida, only marks them up by 600% though - TrollTheLocalPatriot wrote:
