I have already purchased several of these and have them tucked away in my stash. The Quality and finish are great. Shipping is quick.
 
Many thanks Guy - they look great, the only downer is always the o/seas shipping costs/USPS and so on, it becomes very expensive,especially per Kg.
 
I wouldn't be so sure about the shipping being too expensive. I buy stuff from the UK, Spain, Italy etc., and haven't seen the price of postage being so high that it keeps me away. Plus you Euro zone/Sterling folks have the advantage of a favorable exchange on the currencies. These are the bases I buy and the prices they charge are amazingly low for what you get, probably low enough to offset any premium you pay for international shipping.
 
I have to agree with Mike Meehan about Postage and the Price of the bases. The postage from Europe hasn't been bad. FX Rates are pretty good right now for the EUR and GBP. Granted not great but pretty good.
