I agree with the comment to call Elecraft and take exception to Geert's comments.
There are other carriers besides the US Postal Service. From my experience shipping hundreds of parcels from the US to the UK is that the USPS contracts with a commercial provider in the UK (vs the Royal Post), and that provider does not do a very good job. On the other hand, you can choose FedEx, UPS, or DHL. I've had particularly good experience with DHL - especially using a discount provider called Parcel Hero. I guarantee that these big companies are absolutely up to date with the complexities of foreign import and VAT. They know how to safely deliver high value items while complying with current laws and regulations. I am confident that Elecraft has experience exporting into the UK (and EU). I'm sure they have done it more than a few times already. jon N0WL On Wed, Aug 2, 2023 at 3:20 PM Jim Brown <j...@audiosystemsgroup.com> wrote: > On 8/2/2023 12:55 PM, David Gilbert wrote: > > That's a pretty simplistic and condescending reply to Geert's well > > written post. > > Which ignore the obvious -- ask before assuming. > > 73, Jim K9YC > ______________________________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > Message delivered to jonpol...@gmail.com > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
