Supporters Monty Posted November 7, 2015 Supporters Posted November 7, 2015 Some more bits for my svd, slowly getting there.. Went to Airsoftworld to get some ABS svd furniture, but was put off by the price (£40 not including the overpriced postage fees.) So, I went over to AirsoftPro.cz and bought: ABS furniture, current furniture is tatty. 27 euros New trigger pin, old one keeps falling out. 4 euros Sorbo pad. 3 euros After postage and VAT, it came to a total of £35 posted, not bad eh? Should be somewhat skirmishable at this point! Ian_Gere, proffrink and Sitting Duck 3

Supporters Monty Posted November 7, 2015 Supporters Posted November 7, 2015 credit card/bank - how did ya pay, paypal again - if they took paypal on their site I'd have a new spending place They take paypal, I pay via credit card as the fee costs less.
Root Admin proffrink Posted November 7, 2015 Root Admin Posted November 7, 2015 Are you sure it cost you less? Almost all banks in the UK charge commission on converting your currency (even to Euros) and PayPal is actually far cheaper despite their less favourable exchange rate. I painstakingly tried all three checkout options and found PayPal overall was cheapest. Used to happen to me a lot last year with two separate banks because I was too dumb to switch AliExpress and DHGate over to GBP so it was converting to Dollars or Euros all the time. A lot of the time your exchange rate and commission charge won't even show on your statement until a few days after the payment too :S Ian_Gere 1

It was like 16 euros for paypal and 14 euros for card payment. proffrink 1
Root Admin proffrink Posted November 7, 2015 Root Admin Posted November 7, 2015 Yes but does your bank not charge for paying in Euros? Almost all do.

Root Admin proffrink Posted November 7, 2015 Root Admin Posted November 7, 2015 Hm. Well let me know because I get ruined on exchange rates with Halifax. Might consider switching if you have a better experience given the amount of online orders I make.

I'm with halifax aswell, I think with my previous order with Airsoftpro I didn't get charged, but I'm not 100%..
