Forwarding from UK?

[bear the bear]

I've used a company in the US for this to get around geo-blocking on other purchases.
Any recommendations from the UK and costings? Looking at a set of Mavic wheels...

Have you looked for the wheels in Germany?

Had a look at Bike24.de can't ship Mavic out of the EU

You'll have more than just geo blocking issues if using a European freight forwarding company. Problem with buying items in the EU and using a forwarding company, you most likely get nabbed for VAT.
Online retailers deduct VAT when items are sold and shipped outside the EU, but by law the must charge VAT within the EU.
I think the UK is 19%.... so the wheel would wanna be cheap cheap in comparison Aus pricing.

Bike components will ship Mavic, bought shoes off them a while ago and just tested by adding a set of wheels to the cart and went through to payment page no problems.

They will also price match other German sites.
