I'd buy parts from the UK as simply I can't always afford to put in a big order of spares/upgrades from HK/Japan, to make the shipping worth while.
It's not to bad for me though as I run the Durga and most of the parts are available from a couple of UK stockists already.
However, they don't always have reliable stock levels, which i guess is related to The Hobby Co.! If you had a regular supply of bits in I'd most likely use yourselves for spares, and not being far from me probably travel to your shop.
I would probably still look at ordering kits from abroad though!
