Great idea, if I need some bearings, I may as well order them from overseas rather than buy from a UK stockist!

£360 is great but you will very likely get stung on import......which is usually 27% so your £360 turns into nearly £460 of which they are cheaper than that over here anyway!!! Plus extra time it seems a waste of effort to me.

+1 with those comments. Plus we should be supporting our shops as well so then they can support us with spares etc.

PS I paid £439 for mine, prob the same price or a bit cheaper than import.
