Last year I moved to a UK LTD company from being a sole trader. I work on the internet & 95% of my income is from US companies who wire the money into my UK account.
I have a acquired a taste for rather expensive US made guitars and such like. I could buy them here and pay say 3000 out of my own pocket but I'm hoping seeing as though I get paid in USD I get figure out someway of buying goods straight from the horses mouth in USD, the benefits being 1) $3000 is the cost in the US 2) I can use my business funds without the money ever comming to the UK. I have a good relationship with the companies I deal with in the US and they would pay my funds into almost any account I specify.
The problem is I have no idea how to go about purchasing goods with the money that I am able to get in USD, without it ever comming over in the UK. I realise I need some kind of go-between, but would that be in the form of an offshore USD account? or something else completely?
any advise would be much appreciated.
