Hi,

Has anyone on here bought anything from a business called Jedi Sports? They are based in Germany but has a spot on Ebay Stores as well as their own web shop. I'm looking to get a pair on Campagnolo wheels and their prices are very attractive.

So any experience of these guys? Anyone know of any issues I should be aware of buying something like wheels via a German shop on the internet?

Thanks in advance for any help.

    Do you have to pay import duty on good from the EU? My bro recently bought a pair of trainers online from the US and got stung pretty badly on the import tax. So even if it looks cheap it might not be!

    Import duty won't apply as it's an EU transaction. VAT will unless it's paid by the Greman seller. If he pays German VAT, then it won't be charged again in the UK.

    Jedi are very good. Bought a group set from them last year, very responsive to questions, fully trackable delivery, you won't have to pay any duty (EU) or VAT (you pay German VAT).

    Also used them recently for a set of wheels. Very good service - slight hiccup on the paypal side but all sorted quickly and efficiently. I found their website was cheaper than the buy it now prices advertised on ebay. Would definitely use them again.
  • buy local. Keep grey importing and soon that's all you'll have.

    Germany is a long way to go to sort any warranty problems. Never know your LBS might help you out long term if you support him. German mail order ???????
