One of my friends want to buy a cart for LSDJ, what options are there if your are looking a seller based in EU?
I think EU postage is fixed at £8.99. Don't quote me on that though.
I'm from Europe myself but I ordered from Kitsch and the official drag n derp site from the past and those costs were very reasonable.
I believe ASMretro is from England.. you could try that website
I second that Kitsch's shipping costs are qui low, and I'm in France.

We're from the US! We have a wholesaler in the UK who sells through http://gameboymods.co.uk
oops! well, I highly recommend kitsch and ASM (havent tried any others)
shipping overseas isn't a problem in the least bit. the shipping rates aren't very much, imo. (i personally find it totally amazing we can get ANYTHING from one side of the world to the other without shelling out thousands of dollars.... postal services + modernity amaze me)
anywho, an advantage of buying outside the EU would be we don't charge you VAT. that is also something worth considering. the main delay in international shipping comes from the customs process, so as long as the shipper fills out the forms correctly and legibly the difference in shipping times should be negligible.
and now USPS offers basic tracking on the economy rate for many european countries. the times, they are a changin', finally.
