To get my gaim I had to pay £6 vat and £14 handling fee, up £6 from a few months ago. It's ended up costing me about £50.

On the other hand, I ordered Barons rose attacker from amiami last week. Took 3 days to arrive. Cost me £20 total.

As a result, I'm debating cancelling my SHF space sheriff shaider, losing the money I spent as I can't justify the close to £40 it will cost to ship it and pay customs.

Assuming, because you're talking about CS Toys and high customs fees, that your Shaider is coming from CS Toys, there is another (cheaper in initial cost and probably shipping, too) option in the future (they may have some once people don't pay for theirs, too, but for now they're sold out).

Nippon-Yasan does preorders for exclusives, and you don't have to pay in advance (if you don't want to). I got (am getting as soon as I pay tomorrow) my Shaider (and am getting Blade King, Psyga and Imperer) through them.
