****Kappys world tour****
« on: May 18, 2012, 10:21 PM »
So i was chatting to Kappy today when he tells me he is looking to snaffle something a bit special from over the pond. Turns out the seller is a bit nervous about shipping this particular grail anywhere and Kappy is wondering how much he may get stung on import duty for such a rare beast.

I jokingly suggest he pops over on a cheap flight, pick it up himself and maybe relieve a few other yank cousins of there goodies  ;)
"I'll have to ring you back in 2 mins bud" he says  :-\
Sure enough 2 mins later he is back sounding excited. Expecting him to announce yet another gem that has turned up in the post he tells me he has looked into the flight idea and he might be coming back with just the shirt on his back and his cases full of bmx loot  ;D

I pissed myself at the thought of those poor yanks bewildered as mr pop n crisp (or soda n chips as they would call him) rides in and snaps up there goodies.

The flight out  ;D






Unusual "hand luggage"





....and god help them if something goes missing

Sixteen thirty-two. What is that? A year?   No, it's your top score on Pole Position.

The fact my best mate lives in NY, and I worked for an airline, so got cheap flights meant I did this all the time when I was collecting. In fact probably 80% of my stuff came from over the pond. Used to make me smile everytime I walked through customs with suitcases full of stuff. Happy days. Hope your trip is as successful Kappy.
