Looking for expert (Barry Green?) dslr shoulder rig discussion

when the rig arrives I'm going to walk down to the local bike shop and try out some of their handles. Might find a cheap solution there.

I'm liking the Jag35 offset block and the counterweight, at a much cheaper price that the redrock. Still may go the redrock route on the shoulder pad if needed. The Handyslr stuff looks cool but that place isn't open. It seems like the current trend...
 
I ended up upgrading to a G 1700s Matte Black Cage for 100 more. It has handles and a cage/top handle that can be used for extra parts. Plus I love how it looks and I won't even deny being a sucker for aesthetics. Still need a FF, but I'll be at B and H before I shoot so I can pick something up there if I can't get something delivered in time. Hope the redrock v3 or shoot35 v2 is available.
 
What should I expect when the package arrives? Do I need to sign or pay customs? If I'm not home will it be ok?
 
I live in London/Athens so buying shoot35 gear is a no brainer for me. Their mattebox looks amazing and so does their new shoulder rig. I understand they will be adding a counterweight option soon and i just emailed them to see if they will make an all black version of their shoulder rig too. the price is 299 british pounds excluding VAT. I think for this awesome design, quality, fit, finish , customer service/support the price is very good. By the way, i do not work for shoot35:)
