Hello from the team at KMRC! Our latest exclusive models have now arrived!
Our annual in store event at our Camborne shop is now only 1 week away, on Friday 5th September 2025! The event will include manufacturers being present, new KMRC Exclusive product announcements, plus a range of special offers available only to those that attend on the day. Read all about it here!
Just a reminder - it is with regret that we advise, that due to changing import and tariff charges being brought in by the current USA administration, we are temporarily suspending all shipments to USA delivery addresses with immediate effect. The changing rules mean that from the 29th August 2025, the $800 Duty Free De Minimus threshold is being suspended. The result of this is that all imports to the USA will be subject to a tariff of at least 10%, with a minimum charge of £80 per shipment. We apologise to our valued customers in the USA for this temporary suspension and inconvenience. It will remain in place until we receive clarification on potential new processes/duty payment methods from our delivery partners.

Remember to sign up to our Loyalty Account to earn points for every purchase you make! Read about it here. We have been rewarding our customers since 2007!

Things You Didn't Know You Didn't Know (or maybe you did?!)
Did you know... dogs tend to start sniffing with their right nostril. If they smell danger, they continue sniffing with the right nostril, but if it’s a pleasant smell, like food, they shift to sniffing with the left nostril!
James' joke of the week...Why do birds fly south every winter? It's too far to walk!
