Fishing Vest
FLY FISHING: Anyone know where I can by a new Orvis Helios 905 mid flex fly rod cheaper the £579($1100)?
I was so close from buying one off the orvis USA site £380($755) but then noticed the terms and condition that I would be liable for the extra UK tax and import duties when UPS deliver at my door thus making in alot dearer.
My budget is £500 and I want to buy a sharkskin line and a fishing vest too so I would love to by one at the US price.
Its my dream rod!
Could you recommend a dealer that would deliver to UK and avoid the "rip off most expensive place on earth for everything UK tax radar"
Thanks in advance..
You could buy it from orvis in the UK, but the reason its cheaper in the USA is because orvis is a US based company, and also at this moment in time the exchange rates in the UK from the pound to dollar are great, your chances of finding one cheap in the UK will be hard, try these

You could contact this place, im sure they will order you one in if they dont have them in stock at a reasonable price

I think buying from the USA is still going to be your cheapest option, even when you pay the import tax, because these rods are still new to the amrket it will be allot harder to find one from the main retail stores, currently its only orvis who stocks them.

the above still needs VAT added.
