Ted,
I don't personally ship to the UK because Simon (e-cigs.co.uk) and I are partners. If something needs to be taken care of or someone would like to order parts from me and they live in the UK, the referral/sale goes to Simon direct, and vise versa.
That is my reasoning for not selling across the pond. So far, Simon and myself have had zero issues with this setup, and it keeps things quite easy to handle. Ned seems to be the only one having issues.
Other then that, you can get Njoy, Janty, Sedansa, and everything else in the UK so his words have ZERO backing.
