Anyone have any tips?

Thing is, whenever vision direct send me a shipment, I end up paying 20 
import duty, making the whole bargain that much less impressive (and it 
takes an age for them to send too).

Is there anywhere nearer (i.e. Europe) or elsewhere that arent maybe as 
cheap, but end up cheaper taking all factors into consideration?

Thanks

Try Adsa.....my Acuvue dailies only cost 19 for 30 pairs, it's not worth 
the hassle of importing them plus you get free follow up care.

Read this article - tells you that we're being ripped off.  Daily wear
lenses are exactly the same as weekly wear lenses.  Just a big con by
the manufacturers who lead you to believe that you have to throw away
the daily wear lens after one use - thus making them VAST profits!
