International shipping fees suck balls. I was gonna get a buncha shirts from the states but it doubles in price for just shipping...

Anyone know any sites or anything? I know there's freeze but that has fuck all inventory at the moment..

no offence but it's kinda a silly question...
all you gotta do is do a search for ski shops in...PLACE...
there's  www.soundskis.co.uk
www.twoseasons.co.uk
http://theoutdoorgearshop.co.uk
http://www.urbanventura.co.uk
http://www.uktalltees.com
http://www.snowandrock.com
http://edge2edgeshop.co.uk
http://www.ellis-brigham.com

and too many more to mention. if you want a particular brand just search for brand name stockists near town etc.

So if you order from the states, doesn't tax and customs come on top of shipping as well?

If you're unlucky enough ya... It's pretty gay.. It's 13% + 17.5% VAT on the overall price (including shipping).. so shit you buy for $50 bucks that costs you $50 to ship, will cost you ~$120.5 in the end...

Have to push that up. If you're in London, go to Southhampton Street in Covent Garden. It's right next to the big Roman Piazza. On this street, you find shops from:

- The North Face
- Mountain Warehouse (cheap)
- Ellis Brigham (huge, everything from clothes to skis to cameras and acessoires...)
- Trespass (expensive)
- Field and Trek

It is basically London's winter sports street. Massive.
