No they don't, but I could ship it to you if it is a lot cheaper to buy from Newegg (which it often is....prices are high in the UK)

You've got think about the trust issues ffor one thing. Id trust you, but someone who hasn't been here as much might not. Then you've got ot think of the import tax and VAT that might be added on. IMO, just use one of the cheaper websites www.ebuyer.com www.novatech.co.uk www.aria.co.uk or phone up customs and ask them how much would be added, if any. If you do that, reply back because i wanna know that.

There is no customs tax if you ship it as a gift....I've done this several times now. And paypal keeps everything safe, at least between the US, UK, and CA.

Im sure gift idea only works with items upto a certain amount of money. Plus it being an electrical item and with whats been going on atm... Customs is strict atm.

I've used Dabs repeatedly, and every time, the delivery has been AMAZING. Also, it's a cheap site.

Scan is another cheap site, but the delivery is not as great.

There are also postage costs to consider, particularly for large bulky items.
