    get the dimensions/ weights of the pallet, shop around for the best sea freight quote, air freight will be out of the question.
    You will have to pay vat, duty, handling charges etc. on landing, no way around it. Although the weak dollar looks like a good bet for importation, with rising fuel prices, you will pay a lot for shipping plus the 5-6 week delay in bringing the product in.

    My advice is to try and source from Europe if possible.
