ped Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 YOOOOOO00000000oooooooo....... Hi matey, a very fine choice there! I am just off actually but I will reply properly tomorrow - basically your best bet is to email [email protected] and tell him ped sent you ;0) They can take payments direct now and are absolutely superb in every way! ped Quote
steve Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 ishibashi sometimes have second hand ones in the u-box Quote
bkman42 Posted October 11, 2007 Author Posted October 11, 2007 Hi, I just need to work out if bringing a bass over to the UK would cost a small fortune? Ped, How much import duty and etc taxes etc were you charged? Cheers Quote
ped Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 Hi mate, Importing from Japan you will pay the standard rate plus a handling fee. There is a thread about this somewhere. Even with that price factored in, I still think you will be beating lots of the prices of similar instruments we see here in teh UK, especially if you get a used one from Ishibashi or similar (there are no 24F basses on ishi at the moment though) [url="http://www.ishibashi.co.jp/u_box/ubox.cgi?T=gazo&word=2&or8=32&key=&equal1=&value5=&select5=down&print=40"]http://www.ishibashi.co.jp/u_box/ubox.cgi?...wn&print=40[/url] Give Aki a shout and he will be able to help you out.
