Can anyone recommend a UK-based supplier of 230V consumer electrical products that will ship by Royal Mail to the USA? I'm looking for something similar to this, maplin.co.uk a store which unfortunately only ships within the UK. I need to buy some assorted 230V stuff for development of products that will be sold in Asia. [more inside]

Just returned from fabulous 2 week holiday in New York. I Brought back Epson Artisan 800 All-in-One Printer from Staples costing $230. Unfortunately, I cannot use it in U.K., unless I plug voltage converter/transformer products. Has anyone else bought this set over there with more success? Any advice \ information appreciated. Please specify me What exact voltage converter product to buy & where to buy it from USA online store. Thanks. [more inside]
