Shopping On Line From The Uk

David Silver Spares in the UK is the place to shop if you want to save a significant amount of cash. I just received my side bags yesterday and I saved over $500 CD after shipping by UPS (not the cheapest courier), all taxes, brokerage fees, etc. That is including the inner bags. I know, now a days we should try to shop locally to support our local economy, but Honda Canada wants over $1000 CD before taxes. If I were to shop locally, I would not be buying any bags. These bags are Honda original parts and the only difference is, they do not have the side reflectors. I can pick up nice reflectors at Canadian Tire. I think by DOT standards you must have side reflectors.

They are sharp looking and I can�t wait to get them on. Now all I have to do is put on my �IKEA� instructions hat to try to install them.

Many members have taken advantage of David Silver Spares for years now and especially on the bags.

Congrats. :biggrin:

just noticed that the dollar-pound exchange rate is pretty good right now too.

I've heard nothing but good things about the company, but their WEB SITE SUCKS! I wish they'd make it a bit more user friendly.

Having recently dealt with DSS I have to say they are very easy to deal with and accommodating as well. Made the group buy transaction for the Euro VFR badges a really pleasant experience! And, yes the USD-GBP exchange rate has recently gotten very favorable compared to when I was there in 2003.
