As the title suggests.... how long does Todd usually take to ship out to UK? i know he'll be swamped with questions already. I'm #34 anyone with a higher number in the UK got theirs yet?

? I have read somewhere that people in Westcoast of US have received their HF-1's in the #60+ region, I am kind of expecting mind to arrive within this week or so...

Again, I could be wrong...

Unfortunately no (Just got 650's - wallet in IC!) Just hadn't heard anything about the 2nd batch being shipped, so take my previous post with a large pinch...

Any UK buyers got theirs?

How long did it take to get to you and who handled the UK delivery part, and did you get hit with customs charges.

Have to keep the missus in during the day waiting for them and not let her go out shopping with the cash set aside for customs fees.

If they go through customs Steve, they won't be delivered - Just a note to tell you to front up at the P.O. with the appropriate ca$h for the fees

Oddly enough the postman has always handled customs fees on all my other items. Only once did I need to go to the Post Office when we were not in to take a package. On the whole the post around here is pretty good as is our postie.

And before you suggest out postman is making up the duty we've paid by cheque and got the correct paperwork - I think

Anyway I'll give it another week and wait impatiently

Sounds good news, hope they arrived in good shape.

Just FYI, my card was charged on the 23rd of September, #48 arrived in the UK on the 30th of September, and got to my house the next day.

EDIT - Yeah, my declaration said $49 too, the Post Office charged something paltry like £8.70 for customs. Much better than if it had been the full whack, thanks Todd!
