camtang Posted September 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 thats the one, is there a way of converting it, or is that not an option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Yes, you can run a step down transformer. Why not just purchase from Europe instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camtang Posted September 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 because it hadnt crossed my mind :facepalm: would fish-street be the best avenue to go down as far as Europe goes? or is there other ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamH Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Fish-street don't sell FX5 as far as I know. They tend to sell non-branded gear. Buying from an overseas retailer, often one who has a shop, is the best option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camtang Posted September 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 any suggestions on places to start looking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamH Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 I'd suggest Amazon and Ebay UK, those retailers are usually the ones willing to ship internationally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaide Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 Did you get your FX5? How much did it cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
