Smiley We have a few dealers who pop by on the board from time to time. I believe Olly (forum name Olly - ebay ID Olly4Kay) is going to sell boxes, but I don't think he's started yet. MPC (ebay ID MPC_Ltd) seems to have sold out of his preorder stock but it's worth asking anyway.

I believe German customs are as strict as UK ones but that you would be unlikely to be import taxed on purchases from the UK since it's EU duty paid, so at least with the above 2 dealers you can avoid those nasty surprises that come along with your new boxes.

However I believe there are a few places in America preselling - KBMum often talks about "Georgetown" trading cards - can you elaborate for us KB... do they have an online shop?

Cheers - hope this helps

Thanks.

Our USA dealer was sold out (in August) so i had no chance to preorder. I would prefer UK dealer.

But thanks again  Grin

I will have boxes for sale.

But as 90% of my sales are conducted via eBay I rarely pre-sell anything.

If anyone ever wants anything reserved then they can contact me directly (you will often get a better deal by doing this anyway)

T&F, should you decide to order from the US, you can try two companies.  The first is Georgetown Card Exchange.  I couldn't find any information about ordering outside the US, so you'll have to contact them directly.  They are still taking preorders on cases.  The website is:

http://www.gcxonline.com/index_ns.htm

Digital Heroes will ship overseas.  If you click on the "ordering info" button on top of the site, you'll be able to find info about overseas shipping.  They only have a box price on the site, but you can ask about cases.

Thanks for all the helpful answers  Smiley

I know digital heroes would ship international but they sent the boxes with full bill and with the customcharges i pay more than i would pay for a expensive box here in germany. So UK is prefered.

I mail Olly and hope for the best  Grin

Hi Tea and Fruit
I am in Australia and ordered off the Georgetown website. They say down the bottom of their home page that they have been serving cutomers worldwide since 1991. Also on their order form there's an option for countries other than USA.
I just orded Friday and haven't heard anything yet (its Monday our time now but Suday their time) but its worth a try-i'll keep you posted.
Cheers
