Ordering cartridge from overseas

Ordered from Thakker in Germany, under a week. No duty or customs. A breeze.

Great. Thank you for telling me.

Many times it works, especially for a small item. However, often the exchange rates and bank transactions fees do not offer any significant savings. For years I have purchased items UK manufactured from the UK. Presently the exchange rate is not that favorable, but when it was I often saved 30% from what the item would cost in the US.

Like Viridian, I've ordered from Thakker in Germany, twice actually. Echoing everything Marty said, an extremely easy person to deal with, and goods were in hand in under a week.

Joe, we're on parallel paths, for sure. I finished my complete chassis-off rebuild of my Dyna 70 last week, after nine months. VTA board low gain, Russian PIO caps, Panasonic Electrolytics, German can cap, new paint, triode switches, the whole magilla. I don't think that I would've taken it on without your encouragement and guidance. Thanks very much and have a happy holiday.
