Anyone in UK ordered Starting Strength from Amazon.com?

Postby lentil power » Sat May 22, 2010 5:44 pm

Just wondered if UK customs slap import duty/VAT on it when it gets here.

Is £37 from pullum sports but £27 direct from Amazon.com.

Thanks in advance

No VAT/import duty on books.

Buy it straight from Mark? £29 including shipping.

Yep from Aasgard - there's a link on Mark's site: http://www.aasgaardco.com/store/store.p ... how_detail

Bought this and read it now.

Can safely say it has improved all my lifts. Loads of other useful info in there as well.

Great way to spend £30.

Will be ordering practical programming come pay day.
