  2. Tracking Collars

    If your looking for a garmin tracking system, I dealt with a GPS4US, there on eBay. I bought a few systems for my self and friends of mine, I contacted them first to see if they could do something about the custom charges from the US to here in Northern Ireland, they explained to me that the import tax is calculated by how much the shipment is worth, so the would mark it down for a lesser value to save on the duty to be paid. I also send them 3 collars back for repair just 2 weeks ago 2 I bought from them and 1 that was out of warranty which I didn't purchase from them. It cost me 17.50 sterling to send it, as I marked it down for a lesser value which aslo has to be signed for, then to get the collars back it was 130 sterling paid via PayPal to the seller. This cost was 140 dollars for to fix an out of date warranty fix on a dc 40 collar and 2 replacement dc 50 collars. The dc 40 garmin couldn't fix so they sent me 3 dc 50 collars like new with charger and aerial in box. I thought they were very helpful as contacted garmin in the US to see about getting the dc40 fixed and although it was there product they said they weren't prepared to fix it and break international law as they are illegal in the uk. Sorry for the big story lads but this is just my experience with garmin tracking systems... Happy hunting...

    Hi ya irishman, I've used them a few times through eBay and paid via PayPal. The way the custom charges work is by how much your parcel is worth, so if you message the seller before hand, they will put a lesser value on your parcel to keep the custom charges down. I bought the 320 and 2 dc40 collars off of them and I received them 3 days after, which I couldn't believe it as it came from America. Then about 2 weeks after I got a bill from FedEx for £18 for custom charges a though I live in the north so I wouldn't know about any charges if your from the south. I hope this helps...

    Thanks for the reply Neil, I can see what you mean by fighting with anything, and I wouldn't like the fact of them going to ground. It was just an idea as I know the pups would be game if they made the grade. What do you think of the welsh hound as that's something along the lines I'd be looking for..

    Hi all,i have a harrier bitch that's about six years old, she's a decent bitch and good at her job so I wouldn't mind breeding her. I'm looking to know has anyone ever breed or used a harrier hound crossed with a wheaten terrier. The wheaten is a working dog and off a good line and of a similar age. Thanks for looking...
