    I don't know about Amazon.com, but Seairsoft have the shells you are looking for.

    If you put them in your cart Amazon will show you the shipping cost before you place the order.

    But you can assume that customs will stop it and add 21% VAT (on the total price including shipping) and an administration charge of another few %.

    I think you will find that Amazon won't ship Airsoft gear to Ireland though.

    Nope paddy you are wrong...
    they add 21% to everything they get thier hands on.... sometimes you might not be hit with the tax but most of the times you are.
    I once heard that anything under 100 euro entering the country from outside europe wasnt gona be taxed but i dont have a clue.

    if your ordering anything outside the EU always nice to keep tax in your mind

    Or if your unhappy with other retailers prices and unsure of ordering from abroad then ask other retailers for quote :D Iam pretty sure that 80% of the retailers forum is requests of such service :)

    There is a small package allowance. But I am not sure what it is today.

    Regardless, I did a check and Amazon will not ship the DE shells to Ireland.

    I had a package from KH Mountain pulled by customs 2 weeks ago. The non-taxable allowance for packages from outside the EU is a paltry €22 (INCLUDING shipping and insurance....sneaky effers). Anything above that and you have to cough up.
