Has anyone bought kit online from France or other mainland European countries and managed to get it delivered to the UK? In theory it's a good way to save money, but I'm not sure if it's possible.

To be specific, I have my eye on some Triangle speakers and as they're French they're on sale in France with some amazing offers, reducing the UK cost by up to 50%.

Suppliers on French Amazon don't deliver to the UK, and I haven't found any other French supplier who does as yet (I've only checked a couple). Can anyone recommend one?
 
Be careful - in France, speaker prices are typically per speaker, whereas UK typically quote the price for a pair. You should check if you are comparing like ("par Paire") with like.
 
I havbe previously bought professional studio equipment from suppliers in Europe and had no issues with delivery, however I have no experience buying hifi from Europe.

In the end it depends on the specific retailer.
 
Have you thought how you would resolve any warranty issues if you have to ship them back to the dealer?
