Action Airsoft Online

Anyone used Action Airsoft Online.  How were they?

[woody549]

Yeah they’re sound. They request their payment via PayPal and shipping’s pretty quick.

One order from them and it went fine. Their order process is a little convoluted having to wait for postage and then confirming and then waiting for PayPal invoice etc but got there in the end.

AAO is sound.

Used then a lot. The only time I’ve ever been left waiting was some Taiwanese national holiday that lasted nearly a week ? can’t blame them though!

[BigStew]

Used them before. Relatively quick delivery.

[novioman]

Are there posting prices reasonable 

[MistakenMexican]

Postage was quite reasonable from memory. But international postage is still quite expensive right now.

[novioman]

Items despatched airmail, the tracking links to parcel force, but 10 days after  leaving still no sign of delivery.

Hadn’t heard of it, but just tried, and tracking not found.

[hitmanNo2]

Hmm. Weird. Mine took 6 days from dispatch to arrival in the UK.

Just order G17 and magazine from them, process are alright, only thing is there are time difference between the uk and TaiWan , so the process of comfirmation and payment need a bit of time. 

 

Paid on the 10th of december, and the parcel arrived to the customs yesterday and awaiting for customs clearance.

 

I know its holiday time, but does anyone have experience how long its normally take?

it costed me £45, For a Glock 17, 5 magazine and a BBs loader + paypal handling fee 

 

pretty reasonable.

It got to customs 2 days ago at essentially the very busiest time of the entire year?  Yeah buckle in for a good old wait yet, doubt they're in work for the bank holidays either (at the very least).

I had one delivery (not a RIF) that took two weeks to clear the charges process - it took one week to assess a charge, then a second week to reassess the charge and release for payment 

 

Potentially add on time for a VCRA RIF declaration…… and if things don’t appear to be moving keep checking emails and spam, possibly call to check that they have your email address 

 

For fee charges add up the full purchase costs including postage. Then calculate import VAT at 20% of the total (allow for currency conversation rate changes as the assessment will be initially based on the declared total in the sellers currency - but be ready for a revaluation as it could get valued on an assessed equivalent UK price)

Then add on the handling fee which can vary between the different carriers -

a fixed price or a percentage of the total

https://parcelsapp.com/ I find better to use in most cases. Shows detailed information not usually listed on the contracted carrier. Might be worth a look.
