Offer to the brits.
on: December 10, 2008, 11:33:40 PM
After the holidays I would like to help you guys out. I was contacted by a forum member looking into a Sog. Well it is cheaper actually to get one here and ship it over there after having it sent to me. So i was thinking...

If you guys want to do a group buy, feel free to set it up in PMs and let me know. You can have it shipped to me and I can then ship it off to one of you guys. I can ship a big box cheap here from work. Well actually free. and it would save some bucks for ya. Plus I dont believe that customs get you for wedding gifts.  ;)

This way you guys can save some cash! They really get ya over there.

After that we conquer The Aussies and help them out!

Well i kinda get flored over the prices that you guys out side of the states pay for stuff. It is wild that multi tools go for so much. I really would think it would work, and be a way to save some coin. Maybe even one of the sponsers here helping out.

And why wont some companies here ship overseas? I dont get that either.

That's a kind offer hawkchucker - much appreciate that.

And you're right, even with shipping it is usually much cheaper to import things from the US than to buy locally. I'd guess that about 70 of my LM tools have come from the US / Canada, I simply wouldn't be able to afford them otherwise.

I used to come here a lot.

They usually do, IF you wouldn't mind paying $70 to ship a pair of pants via Fedex next day air.  ::) (and that $70 "oversea" to canada, hate to know what they want to ship to u.k.)

Actually it would be "Yes dearest" and I wouldn't have brought the Sebbie for protection, I would have brought the Trailmaster.  :D
