[UK-CONTEST] WinKey import

[Peter Hobbs]

A lot depends on the carrier.  RM (via USPS) *always* charges you, because 
each package is looked at individually.  DHL and UPS only about half the 
time, so I always specify one of them, the impression being that these guys 
tend to get their consignments cleared in bulk and things slip through . . .

Four of us here in Fife ordered usb winkeys, One paid similar amount to you
Neil and the rest didn't pay anything they were just delivered as normal
mail.  Guess who the one was? :-(

Hi,

<snipo>
I'm not looking foward to the £250 VAT on my K3 in a few weeks time. I
guess 8 or 15 quid pales into insignificance then!

Hmm, nasty that.  Good job we don't do VAT here.  I've been quoted $200
delivery by air by DHL.  The US parcel service doesn't do or know about
the Falklands.

Big hole in the propagation on the OM contest at present.  15M died off,
10M didn't open and too early for 20M.

Regards,

Mike VP8NO
