Re: Take delivery in Europe or USA

Thanks! Good idea on the foreign exchange rate. I traveled the world and found that I can get by with English in most countries.

Re: Take delivery in Europe or USA

Thanks for the good advice. Yes we plan to export so vat should not be an issue. Having lived in Europe for many years I'm well familiar with that tax. Appreciate the comments on shipping.
