Thrustmaster GrandPrix 1 Wheel, where to get on the net?

Ok, I'm fed up with my keyboard now, as Richard Walker kindly poined out
to me, Gp2 is no fun with keys if you plan to do some serious racing.

So now i've decided to get the Thrustmaster Grand Prix 1 Wheel system...

Anyway, the point is, living over in England, there's no way i'm
prepared to pay extortionate prices for the same thing, thats half the
price in the states.

So, here's the question:

I want to order a GrandPrix 1 wheel on the net, can anyone recommend a
www computer store that has very low prices, and will ship to the UK?

It'll have to be a web site, as a phone call to the states would wipe any
price advantages to be gained...

Many thanks, you're doing me a great favour!

Hi Simon,

I've ordered from cexpress in the past and it worked out OK but not
cheap. The customs people will almost certainly look at the shipping
documents and add a charge (can't remember how much) and VAT including
VAT on the shipping charges!!!. However, the item I wanted at the time
was unavailable here.

I'm sure others on the group can advise best current prices.



BTW, a phone call would be relatively cheap compared to the cost of the
item.

>Many thanks, you're doing me a great favour!

I have never seen a GrandPrix wheel from Thrustmaster, at least not where
I live, which happens to be a mile from their HQ.
