Where do you guys order your plus scales?
on: June 19, 2018, 02:45:37 AM
I have a super tinker that is begging for some sapphire plus scales. I see them for $15 on eBay. Do you guys have a better/cheaper place to order them from?

Mine came from Ukraine via the bay and I think I paid about $18 shipped for the scales and all four scale tools and the eyeglass screwdriver.  Can't remember the seller but could probably find them if you'd like.  If you find a good deal please let us know!

I've used the Ukranian eBay seller and also Heidi Shop in Switzerland with good success.  About the same price all-in, and shipping takes a while from either supplier. 

Good luck.

They usually give them to me for free at the Geneva flagship store when I ask nicely... and because I spend way too much time in there  :whistle:

I can pick a couple for you if you'd like. Just PM me your address.

I always get jealous when you folks on the other side of the pond mention physical victorinox retail stores! We don't have those here in the states.

And that's a generous offer to ship me some. I am over here in Texas, what do you think the costs would be to send them this way?

Between 3 and 4 Swiss Francs, depending on how fast you want them :D.
The CHF is almost 1 to 1 with the USD.
