But you can buy them form the US and even wiht all the shipping and import duties you make out like a king. What really sucks is trying to go on holiday in Europe in US dollars. Or trying to sell something made in Europe to Asia and US markets when your only competitors are Japanese. I know, I do this for a living. It amazes me that I'm still employed. schroeder Posted 2005-02-07 12:28 PM (#164226 - in reply to #164221) Subject: Re: Count yourselves lucky Joined: November 2004 Posts: 4413 Exactly - don't knock it. I've done the math(as you guys would say) and there may be an order winging its way to Vintage Grinches sometime this summer. Do you take kids in trade? They wouldn't be any trouble - they're used to living with a grumpy old man.
