Must admit I buy little from the US now due to the high postage but 10 years ago when it was $12 and the dollar was very favorable it was a no brainer."Don't get involved in the f**kin' chat pages. It's just full of arseholes talkin' sh*te non-stop"

Saying that re Kratgravers comment on the price of post in Holland I have stopped buying from there and Belgium for same reason , preferring to buy from Germany as its by far the cheapest post at 6 euro signed for to the uk
