    Click the section where it says "For overseas customers" and you should email them, telling them what you want and they'll give you details on how to order. It's a little unconventional, but I've done it myself before, and they're great to deal with.

    Thanks Karl.I took your advice and got quoted including shipping etc.The only thing is they say that I am also liable for the tax in my country.If I'm paying roughly a grand for something how much extra should I be expecting to pay in tax?

    As a matter of interest, I was thinking of buying a boss stomp box off the ubox. Comes to about €40 after Japanese tax. How much would they charge for shipping to Ireland? I'd assume I'd get away without paying tax as I've bought plenty of stuff off ebay for more than €40 and never been taxed on it.
