Everything i get from china is just parts, it's cheaper for me to buy directly from the manufacturer in China, then retailers here.
I had a call from DHL today for a £3,000 order of connectors, they wanted me to pay £8.46 in taxes.
Same as when i send customers orders, i never declare the cable any more then £22, taxes all depends on what value the seller puts on the package when they send it.
As a side not, i will be announcing 2 new Silver IEM cables this weekend, the first will be the Piccolino by Crystal Cable, pictured below, and the second, a new stranded 7N OCC Silver of my own, both will be sold at a promotional price never seen before, quantity will be limited at these prices.
