ketanswali:
You make a valid suggestion Matthew. We may need to find a way to implement this suggestion for certain regular customers who normally ask for delivery to their overseas address. Please drop me an email (off forum) with your full name and address in France, and I will see what is possible. |

Hi Ketan, Thanks for your response and I do understand your trading model. Your gracious apologies regarding telephone attitudes is accepted, and will be forgotten. Unfortunately, I think you have misunderstood my own intentions, and I would like you to understand where I'm coming from, so to speak. Your statements:- 1) 'Matthew who lives in France, wanted to save money, just like you do'. Everyone would like to save money, but in my case this is not necessarily correct. You seem to be the only vendor of the blocks and the ER32 collets, and I am more than prepared to pay the price you are asking. Therefore 'saving money' is not my objective. I don't want to encourage you to raise prices, but I would have bought these if they had been twice the price! 2)'I guess in your case you even want to save on paying taxes for when you take goods back to Thailand'. Again, in my case, incorrect. While my wife and I do live in Thailand due to my wife's Foreign Office assignment with her German Embassy, we both have diplomatic passports and status and are exempt from taxes and duties, while I travel the region assisting international engineering consultants managing large hydropower and mineral heavy haul rail programmes. All I wanted to do was to collect the items while I was in England in order to check out their quality and be able to return them easily if they were not up to standard. While I am sure this will not be the case, it is much easier and quicker to collect them while on vacation, as international shipping can sometimes take much longer. Your policy is established by yourself and satisfies your degree of caution, based on your past experiences with apparently large import/export dealings. I would have thought that dealing with hobbyists, with much smaller purchases, would have been less problematic, but that is not my decision. I will try to arrange my small order through other means, but I could not expect any member of this forum, or even my B & B, to fork out $1,000's for a larger order on my behalf. I suggest we put this matter to rest, as enough has been written. If you ever amend your policy, please contact me directly by e-mail. Allan in Matthews case, he could have asked his son to buy on his behalf. I have already explained some of the reasons for our policy earlier. Just because ARC chooses to do business in its way according to its policy, which fails to meet what you want it to do, does not make it a bad seller I guess in your case you even want to save on paying taxes for when you take goods back to Thailand. in Matthews case, he could have asked his son to buy on his behalf.
