And what sites are good to use?

Has anybody used Bass Pro shops?

you can try tacklewarehouse.com also.

the biggest cost by far is not the lures etc but the postage.

the courier delivery is awesome but will cost you $55 over and above the price of your purchase.  there is a web based tracking system and you will be able to track your order almost in real time from time of confirmation of your purchase until it is delivered to your door. Order on Thursday, it's in your hands on the following Tuesday, correctly packed, and everything in the parcel.  Then you have to pay v.a.t on the Rand value to the courier company.

a cheaper option, if you are not in a hurry, is to go surface postage, and then it's about 3-4 weeks for delivery.

place an order with a buddy and share the postage costs?

or, have a free delivery made to a buddy in the usa, and have him post it to you, but insure the parcel cos it may not get to your door.

Do you think this would be cheaper than normal shipping?

i don't think that there will be much difference in price.

it is the courier service which is the most expensive, by far.
most orders over $50 have free postage/delivery inside the usa.
the costs mount when your parcel hits international postage.

Please remember, when ordering rods from tacklewarehouse, you will be billed seperate for shipping as they do not ship rods with terminal tackle or reels. Bass pro shop is nice but they charge 45% of your total order for shipping. Tacklewarehouse works out much cheaper and their prices on items are the same as bass pro shop or little cheaper.

If you are interested in ordering abroad we can split shipping costs. I have purchased 2 rods and reels from TW and experienced no problems..My goods were delivered within 8days.

PM me if you are interested.
