    Just wondering if anyone has purchased and imported a CARADA PJ Screen from the US ? If yes, was there any additional customs charges on import on top of the screen and shipping price ?

    Eddie,

    Just wondering what has attracted you to the CARADA Screen. Have you seen one in action.

    With the price of these screens and the cost of shipping/customs, you'd get a similar screen in Irl / UK for a better price?

    Lots of good reviews on the web, and from anyone I have seen posting about them on boards or avforums, plus a favourable exchange rate !!! Decision not made 100% yet, am just doing some research and was wondering would I also get stung by customs.

    Thanks for the offer, however am really leaning towards the Carada screen at this point. Have sent them details of my room set-up and what I am after, they are due to get back to me today with some information.

    I got a Criterion 106" about 2 years ago. Find it very good, comparable to Steward Screens. Had no issues with it, lovely finish, and completley wrinkle free. With exchange rates so good might be a worthwhile consideration...

    Thanks Jason, do you recall how much it cost you, and what you had to pay on import duties/taxes?

    The whole thing cost a little over €500 at the time, but I didn't have to pay shipping / related charges as a friend who manages one of the big delivery companies done me a favour by bringing it in.
