In the shipping screen, when you have an item in your basket, you can select where to ship to...

Misco, where did you get the link to that? I've seen them before, but TD is still cheaper?

That's true, I don't know how much it'd be...

Hmm, I have a friend in the US, I may get him to order sometime off NewEgg and then ship it to me, how much is shipping do you think?

I was thinking sometime in the future, an 8800 640MB and a new modular PSU, but pretty soon, probably Vista and 2GB more RAM.

Apj is right though, once shipping is addded theres very little saving, dont forget it will be taxed on entry to this country too so you need to add even more. You could easily end up finding it more expensive in the end

Wrong! UK Gov. have 17.5% VAT on top of everything! So it will solely depends of what is the value of goods he is buying. However, shipping from US will lose the warranty.

P.S. if one want to ship this PC component, I suggest claim it as 'Sample' or 'Gift' on the parcel.

Kornowski if i were you id buy VISTA first and then monitor how much ram you use doing what you do, because you will probably find that another 2 gb will be a waste.

Sorry to thread jack

Also i just ordered from america and had to pay £11.95 custom charges :(

Look for a website from somehwere in the EU. They're usually cheaper then over here still, the shipping is only a few pounds more, and there's no tax to pay on top.

elmarcorulz, do you have a link to any web-sites please?
