I suspect you may have to do what I did.

1. Get someone in USA or Canada to order for you.
2. Have the goods delivered to them.
3. Have them mail the goods on to you.

It's a little long winded and certainly does add to the cost, but it does work.

hummmmmm i was hoping i wasnt going to have to do that

Of all the drivers available in Europe you prefer to buy from PE? None of my business really, just curious.

onis_uk · 5th August 2004, 09:36 PM

yeah but they are soooo cheap buying from the us (the whole strength of the £ atm) that even with expensive shipping its still cheaper to buy them from you guys !!!

They ship to Australia so I'd say they'd do the UK. Just create an account and place an order and I'm sure they'll be happy to take your money.

Surprised about the email responses as I've always had a reply within 24 hours.

Try Great Britain.

Somebody on this board from Britain called them directly and was told of the charges which raised the price quite a bit. So they do ship there, at least as of a year or so ago.

PS: I don't know if this makes a difference, but if you own a business or have a friend with a business who is willing to give you tax numbers, perhaps you might be able to save some. I don't know, but worth a try.

I sent you an email Onis_uk

One of the reasons which PE can be less expensive is VAT -- the equivalent of sales tax in the US is only charged by the respective state -- so if you live in New Jersey, as I do, you aren't charged the Ohio sales tax.

Also -- distribution in the US is dirt cheap -- with the US Postal Service learning to compete with UPS and FedX.

I am happy to trans-ship, and do so for a lot of folks in europe and oz -- but I am a quasi-libertarian !!!
