Default bumpers Group Harrington

Bought a set of bumpers about a month ago for the amazon.Add said no duty to pay.

Today I had a bill from Fed Ex for a further £56 for duty and tax invoice have others had this experience.

If so you need to add £56-80 to the purchase price .I bought of e bay to what I thought was a UK address but they came direct from Vietnam.

If you Google Harrington Bumpers, you will be able to deal with them direct, then you will know what the costs are.

Harrington and all the others buy them in from here

Buying direct can save you a lot of money. A few years ago Gordon Hunter get together a group buy. I bought 3 sets (1 for me and 2 for someone else) Money paid covered everything delivered to your door. No extras. They were good to deal with. Quality and fit plus the fitting kits are better now than then. Yes the price will be higher now. Mine were about £200 per set cheaper but we did get a quantity discount for over 20 sets, Amazon and 1800.
