That's in dollars, so for the current rate it's £129.97 not bad + p&p £28.88 and what the duty this lovely country wishes to charge..   :o ...

It's short on the value of $2800...  then in 8 days.. an you'll have a bid Philip..

There's an old adage about crafts people that says 'If we could afford to buy what we make, we would not make them!'
Oh Lord, Lead me not into temptation…

...Oh who am I kidding, follow me, I know a shortcut!
