Nearly 50 quid delivery? Do you bring it personally. At more than 60 quid a pot you might find UK sales are slow, as is the estimated delivery period. Might pay you to review your postal options.

What's the advantage of this over Flory Promodeler wash?

Also, I believe this should be in the "For Sale" section, eh? 8)

The link above took me to a page where this stuff is about $16 plus postage. Not sure where the 50 quid part came from.

@Max $56.15 is the USPS cost to the UK. Daft I know, but transatlantic postage costs shot up around 2009 and never came back down, especially as there is far less air traffic to carry the mail right now

@Jumbo - trust me you ain't getting cheaper than that, FedEx and UPS charges would make your toes curl...

I guess you are right there. In the UK we only buy from the US when we don't notice it's from the US! Postage is a stupid price and import taxes (and their collection fees) are too. Real shame. :(

Ironic that England is complaining about taxes from the colonies :D Of course I’m kidding. I love my British brothers.
I just ordered a bottle of the German Tri-Color for my prized Tiger 1.

Hey now, I can remember the days when the dollar was monopoly money too (those days were great, getting paid in the UK while living in the US - until I switched employment to the US office and had to send money home to pay the mortgage and the car off, then not so much...)

It's at times like these that you realise it's about time we all loved each other! I guess all those Bears and Russian war ships cruising around our coastline are just on a goodwill tour then, as are all the B2 flights in and out of the UK. Phew, just as well, eh.

No, it's just that every other country on this planet happily sends high value parcels across the globe without any custom declaration labels or just lies about the value. Not the US and they are loosing trade as a result.
