Snapper, i notice you mention that you got the kit off ebay from Hong Kong. I use ebay alot, but always buying from the UK Ive been tempted to try from kits from Hong Kong but have been worried if they are scams? did you have any probs or was the deal all ok, cheers, Martin
Martin, I have bought loads of stuff from H/K. both from ebay and internet shops. In my experience they have all been cheap, polite and super efficient.
I have never had any problem with transactions....kits, cameras, I have even bought M4 and G 608 assault rifles, full size replica weapons for my airsoft gaming, no probs. A good example, I bought a Sony digital camera case recently for £5.00 incl. p/p!! It would have cost in excess of £25.00 here in the U.K., without postage!
My son bought, a few years back now, his PS3 from H.K., because he wanted to be one of the first in the U.K. to own one!!
The folks in H.K. usually give you a tracking number, great fun following your item day by day.
I have never had to pay 'dues' on anything......yet!
I understand your reluctance in buying from H.K., I was until I did my first transaction, now I don't give it a second's thought....
I hope this helps you decide on any poss. H.K. dealings in the future.
Sorry to borrow your thread Snapper.
