posting to norway is a major headache,they want you to mark the price down to avoid taxes etc then if the pacel gets damaged you can only claim the low price,good chance of you losing alot of money,norway customs can hold parcels for weeks if not months as well.best selling elswhere if you can.

i have never had any issues with parts from uk.

the pricing down on the parts is for avoiding vat (25%)

think that is stupid thing to do because if the package is lost or damaged,both parties are f***ed.

Denmark is not Norway though... Denmark is within EU, which makes things a lot easier for some reason.
