Hello all,
I`ve just joined after being a voyeur for a long time.
I am in the process of buying a new roadbike and I`m thinking of getting the bike from a shop in Seattle. FedEx charges about $240 for shipping (3days). Also thinking about using totalcycling out of Ireland for some parts. My question is for anyone who has experience having bikes or parts shipped from abroad: any strong opinions regarding Japanese customs? Any nightmare stories? Any customs delays or horrific charges?
Your experiences and advice are much appreciated.
