    Any Forum Members Located in the USA Able to Help Me Out?

    I am going to buy some watch hands from Ofrei.com, but they want $68.86 + tax just to ship to the UK - so $122 total for watch hands that cost $42!
    I was wondering if anyone located in the United States would be kind enough to ship them to me, if they were delivered to a US postal address - as that would only cost $10.13 = tax USPS.
    Seems crazy to pay $70 to post something so small & relatively inexpensive.
    Please PM me if you can help me out.
    Thanks.

    I sympathise. I bought some hands of them a few years ago.
    Would have been cheaper if they were human ones.

    When I owned an imported Mustang I used to use a forwarding service for parts. They gave you a personal address for one of their shipping sites and did bulk shipments to the UK. Did take a good bit longer but was significantly cheaper.

    I'm in the same boat and I live in Canada. Shipping isn't any cheaper on some items

    What are the hands for and doesn't Cousins in the UK carry them?

    Omega hands that Cousins don't carry, i'm afraid.
