Hello again,
after all the support you've given me, I wanted to let you know how it all played out.
Got four AW 18650s (2000mAh) from NoLeaf and an Xtar charger from Bam!Boo. The latter shipped two days after the order, payed with direct debit from my bank account; the batteries arrived after five days, paid cash upon delivery.
As for my other kit, I got a REO Grand, paid for with int'l money order (I don't use paypal because they suck, and they wouldn't accept either of my three credcards) and delivered 13 days after the money order went out. Halo eJuice took a week to arrive, paid with credit card. No hassle whatsoever from customs or posties.
Again, thanks for all the support!
