Magazine Conundrum

Hello fellow ASC-ers. I recently bought an MP5 here on the classifieds, and now I need a little input on magazines. I want to have enough magazines for a normal Airsoft game, but still not spend TOO much. Basically I have 3 choices:

1. Buy an 8-pack of MAG mp5 magazines from A&A: $79 + tax + shipping

2. Buy an 8-pack of MAG mp5 magazines from a US retailer: $42-$48 + tax + shipping + possible duties/customs charges.

3. Buy 3 or so MAG mp5 magazines from a US retailer for $8-$9 each + tax + shipping + possible duties/customs charges.

I just want a little input on what would be the best route. Some of you have ordered from the states and know what shipping and duty rates are.
Thanks.

What about Star MP5 Mags? They're cheap and of pretty good quality.

Most of the STAR ones that I've seen are only 30rds though. These are 90rds

As mentioned above, the Mag midcaps are virtually the same as Star mags except higher capacity. They are plastic, feed well and are of good quality.

Good to know if I'm buying them. Thanks.
