"The Dromia Rule"
Deer Stalking… reliable word of mouth recommendation from someone you know has undertaken such stalking being offered by a specific syndicate is best. Like other walks of life, stalking has its scammers. E.G., make sure there is deer, of the species sought, on the land being made available; that appropriate insurance is in place; that there is recourse for recompense if it all goes wrong. In addition, obtain and understand terms and conditions; consider the implications of allowing a syndicate leader to be a FAC mentor; make sure ‘coaches’ are suitably qualified; consider the quality of deer management, the construction & execution of a shooting plan and safety; determine if the land is over-shot.
If in doubt, contact BASC or similar.

Anyone considered to be a scammer will be banned without warning.

Making a false declaration of value on the customs forms is fraud.

Re: Purchasing a knife from the US
Is that what it is? really! Everytime I've played by H.M Customs rule book I've been hammered a lot more than a mere 1.7% on used goods,. They happily add the postage charge on top too, infact they do what ever they want and Joe Bloggs gets ripped off again!Polchraine wrote:All of 1.7% !Harry Brown wrote:Yes I agree....And customs import duty on used products is robbery.dromia wrote:Making a false declaration of value on the customs forms is fraud.
Anyhow, if you ever decide to import a used knife costing hundreds of pounds from the USA please do have it clearly labelled up as a ' Second hand Commando Knife' with the full value displayed. I'd be very interested if you ever get to see it and if you did, what extra charges they slapped on top. I'll carry on using my system. You chaps can be above board and pay the charges.
Each to their own, I'll take my chances in the real world.
