Dollar to Pound

Have you seen the exchange rate at the moment?
A dollar is worth 60p currently.
Can get a new Rol-Plow from the States for £136 delivered.

Yep Im watching it closely ATM cos we fly out in just under 4 weeks, I usually buy stuff and have it delivered to my hotel then bring it home in a suit case. I have a very strange shape suit case.

Errrr NO TBh I dont think I will be buying any thing this time Im taking 5 children and not doing the fly drive so no car to get out and about in just staying on Disney and using their own transport. Plus I dont really need anything, last time I bought a set of pistons,conrods and valves for my race bike and saved over a grand.

Did you have your race bike in the case too???

60p a dollar is good, hope its the same in the summer when I go!

**Dillon** · 02-03-2014, 01:52 PM

**E.K Taper** · 02-03-2014, 05:04 PM

It's just a smaller version of the auto taper mate. Ideal for cupboards etc

**Dillon** · 02-03-2014, 05:16 PM

watch you don't get stung on the import duty, some couriers (fedex, ups) have also started charging personal individuals comp processing charge - basically a paperwork fee - depending on the product value and country of original manufacture.

Ur ment 2 b on my side!!!!!!!

Haha - you're fine if you are smuggling it in a suit case Beermonster!! it's when folk order online from States then next time they speak to me they are surprised that their £100 order ended up costing another £40 to clear customs! plus the new handling fee added by courier is a killer - if you have vat deferment accout and import licence and you are bringing containers of tools in then you should be fine !

who you trying to send mini taper back to?? ( i often have returns going back across the pond)
