Hi folks

I'm looking for a shop in the UK that sells these Go Fly a Kite 3D
dolphins..

http://www.midamericahobbies.com/kite-blue-dolphin-p-1340.html?language=
de

So far I'm only found stores in the US that have to charge a fortune for
shipping.

Thanks

J

Not a direct help - I get stuff shipped from the USA to Oz using
<http://www.myus.com>, frequently using their "Personal Shooper" service
when the seller won't accept a non-US address for a credit card. Sigh.

Everything I have used them for has worked out cheaper than having the
seller ship direct, mostly computer bits, so the shipping rates may not
be directly comparable with kites, but give them a look-see. (The last
thing I bought had a shipping charge of USD61 from MyUS (plus USD7 to
ship from the seller to MyUS), versus USD99 from the seller. Admittedly
it took about a week compared to 2 days, but I can wait :-).)

Cheers,
Gary B-)

Gary, I used MyUS as suggested, and I now have the kites are
currently at the DHL depot in Heathrow waiting to be delivered. Thank
you so much for the suggestion:)
