Default ordering direct from China, does it work?

Buddy of mine wanted to order a Surpass 90 directly from China

http://enjoyhobbies.net/index.php?ma...products_id=16

Or these guys, other model:

http://www.theworldmodels.com/para/p...airplaneid=165

Anybody with experience with these or similar guys? Shipping/customer service/ import duties (to Europe). Does it arrive??

Do you have other suggestions?

thanks for your inputs,

volkert

Service from Mr. Huang (enjoyhobbies) was flawless.
I received my Surpass 90 within 6 working days in excellent condition (Paypal payed).

That's really great! Did you have to pay import duties?

I just payed the tax for the insured value. It depends on the customs value estimation or the marked value on the box.
Anyway the direct buy is way cheaper than buying the plane from importers.
Contact with seller was also ok (email).

Hello,
Is this the same as the Fliton infinity?. Did it come in the same colour scheme as the one on the website?
Also the 3d version of this model is also shown and looks really good.
As anyone tried the other models available from him?

it is more or less the same as the Fliton Infinity. I think there were two versions of this plane. The Fliton one has bigger rudder and elevator.
