    1. No 'congress' in my country; HMRC set the import tax rate.
    I was being tongue and cheek. :PWe're all just 'colonies of the UN' nowadays aren't we?

    2. A recent order for $25 from the US cost me $24 in taxes = $49
    A 96% tariff?! What country are you in anyways?

    3. The $23 stamps from Hong Kong cost just that - no delivery or taxes added
    Wild. I can only imagine the production/conditions which would precede that.
    That question was directed more at the person in the USA, but that's interesting.

    4. As a private user I cannot set up either a Fedex [who do not deliver in my country anyways] or UPS contract in my country - their rules
    Okay. I'm sure Mark would be happy to figure out what needs to be done in that case.

    5. My bank does not do 'wire' transfers
    I've never heard of that before. I can't even think of a reason that a bank would not do that... They have a routing number and a fiat currency what else do they need?

    6. I have to jump thru hoops to use my CC in direct sales in the US, but not in Europe or via paypal - hoops include posting to the seller a signed written order before the CC will recognise and accept it - that takes 5 to 7 days.
    Seems like the least of your problems.

    7. The order mentioned in #2 came into my country 2 days after ordering it, it then sat for 14 days whilst it cleared customs; meanwhile the order from Hong Kong dropped thru my door's letter box.
    So that's one order from HK which arrived in 10 days? My understanding is packages from HK sometimes arrive quickly but more often than not take 25 days or even 2-3 months depending on a number of factors (including the shipping season). If you can abide the craps shoot, okay. Me, I'd rather know it arrives in 16 days than wonder if it will arrive in 25 or more.

    Boy, do you have some answers.

    Just trying to help. ;)You stated concerns about companies in the USA not answering your order inquiries. So I looked into it for the sake of the board. Got you the number and name of the guy to call. :rolleyes:

    You have cheap organic food and fresh bread there at least, I hope??

    I contacted Metal Magic and asked if there would be any problem shipping overseas and was assured there is NO problem.

    There will be an import tax I guess :blink: call your Congress or something..? ('But then who will build mah'roads!?')

    Their preference would be to setup the account as a wire pay or CC and shipment on your FedEX or UPS account.

    Contact Mark at 800-851-4120 if you need to speak with someone.

    Metal Magic is an award winning die producer; I found the prices quite reasonable, production astoundingly fast, and product quality superb. Ship it overnight if it's needed like that.

    B) You eat soft rice. I'd be interested to know how much you all pay to consistently have $23 dies shipped into the USA from Hong Kong in a week or so... :rofl:

    About Metal Magic:
    ...In 2001 the company created a CNC department and introduced one of the industries first computer driven milling machines for engraving dies. The investment in technology was so successful, a year later Metal Magic created an entire brass engraving department with multiple CNC machines and hand engravers.
