Yeah most places I can't buy from, I think I may be able to buy from Amazon but they're not always that cheap, and half the good stuff has to be bought from their US site.

Amazon, that's something we miss here in Belgium
I like buying on-line, but the fares are huge to ship from the US
Well, back to work, lot's of it in the near future

I buy from eBuyer or CCL. Owen you should consider putting Casino on Net banners there, they are like 1p per click! I tried to get one but I can't find it.
Before you try, you can't just keep clicking it because it records the IP address and won't allow another click from that IP until a different IP clicks it so you must change your IP.
Thanks,
Adam Reece.

Oh I get you, so the faster the delivery the more you pay... I actually thought you set the price in which you pay

It's ok if you can get what you want easily, it's when there's something hard to find even on websites that it bites you can't get it cheap, even when yanks get it cheap.

If the price difference was a lot I'd get someone from America to send me it.

Yeah...it helps when you know people in the know as they say...although you don't have to be in the know to live in America, that's not how the saying goes.
