Sheffield style from the "Orient"

Barber notch smiler from Gold Dollar available now on Amazon. Ebony scales. I got a few. Nice razor and cheap for what it is. Just putting this out there. I don't sell anything nor do I have any affiliation with Gold Dollar or.any other company.

It looks very interesting. I did an internet search. It's not available in the EU, and ordering from the USA is sadly no longer an available option.

Why can't you order from the US?

Why can't you order from the US?

It isn't specific for the USA, the same applies to all non EU countries. The last four years the trans Atlantic shipping fees have doubled. Back then one out of five packages got caught in the Customs, now every package is checked and 25% VAT is added upon the sending country's VAT, then there's added import fees and a $10 handling fee. Finally since March this year the Swedish Customs holds the package for up to two months. In short: Unless you let a friend in the sending non EU country (USA) place the order for you, receive and repack the goods and send it on to you as a private package it's much cheaper and convenient to settle for what you can buy in the EU.

In a month Australia is going to have the same problems.

Yes I agree Arne Shipping and import and customs is a killer, even here in the UK it sucks. So you guys if we buy a razor at $16 that turns into $77 for us here sometimes more..... So sadly not a viable option....
