I have never ordered something from another country and was wondering what to expect. Tariffs, fees and wait times and such. I would be ordering from companies like Paddock and ACT. No really from private parties. Thanks for any advice.
+1I have ordered from LRDirect many times. Great prices, shipping is not expensive for some reason and very fast delivery, faster than it should be considering where it comes from. The only issue I have ever had was needing to tell my credit card company that I was placing an international order so the fraud protection did not kick in. Everything was direct, done online and even the support was timely, don't forget about the time difference though.
Besides the CC issue, which was cured when l applied for a Amazon card...no more questions (even with first purchase overseas with Amazon card).
Anyhow...
Something I've noticed...whenever purchasing something from England or Europe...they always demand a signiture upon delivery. Which can be a bit of a bugger, if you work late.
Most times, shipping time frame is acceptable. Granted, during the holidays...a couple items showed up after Christmas.
Brian.
Just out of curiosity. Are you not able to source the parts in the States?
Never had a signature required. Ever.
