Living in Hungary, the 406 spares are extremely expensive and I'm wondering if it might be cheaper for me to buy them in the UK even considering the postage costs. My question really is: has the 406oc got a preferred supplier, a discount even? Obviously I've checked ebay and the prices of, for example, disk pads (which I need) is probably worth the additional postage.
thanks

Re: spares in general
Hi, to post a set of pads to Hungary from the UK is £24. The pads are £25, so total price will be £45. How does this compare to Hungary prices?

Re: spares in general
To send a 1kg parcel is £24, a 2kg parcel is £28. This is a guide price but you can use it to determine if its cheaper to buy parts where you are or have them sent from the UK.
I guess heavier items will cost more to send, so probably cheaper in Hungary?
