Either that, or you could try sending them straight to Ibach with a short note saying that the local importer refuses to help you.  If you are going to pay international postage, you might as well go directly to the source!

What's broken? My dad's never handled a multi, but he's got hands of gold and a head of platinum.  :angel:

Edit: on second thought, Finland won't let you mail them here... sorry about that.

Def's plan sounds like your best bet, Mikko. I am just guessing, but I think Vic's head office handles things differently from some of their regional offices.

If the postage is very high, perhaps it might even be worth just complaining about it to Vic's head office? I would doublecheck with others here who have more experience in dealing with Vic before doing that though.

From what you said, another option might be to buy 2 Spirits from FelineVet. Then you can keep one, sell the other for 120E and buy 2 new Swisstools. :D
