^^^ I have bought a ton of gear from Greece based MFG's/vendors (esp one that actually ships from it's MFG shops in Bulgaria). Even USPS Priority Mail within the CONUS often doesn't get delivered to me any faster than packages from Bulgaria that are 3 days door to door. Once a new high end mod went back to them that I was not satisfied with... they had it picked up from me at my door, did the work that should have been done before it left the factory and it was delivered back to my door within a total inclusive time of 6 days. Have had 3 weeks or longer delivery times after shipped from Canada and the UK companies though that only shipped via Post/Royal Mail. To me RPITA mail (I never bought from those companies again).

I've bought from the same companies, probably; Vapourart, Atmomixiani, MMVapors. They all use DHL, FedEx, or UPS. Unbelievably fast. However, some of the British companies that ship via RM to USPS are ridiculously slow.
As for California, if the package goes through the LA hub, it's like going into a black hole. It can be stuck there for days.

Thorough Germans.

Well, considering the people in my local customs office, more like "lazy ... Germans fed up with this newfangled internet malarky"

VapourArt, By Leo and GR-modders mostly. DHL Europe more than keeps DHL USA on track. US Customs can often be a black hole for weeks. The worst black hole I have ever encountered when shipping myself though was a rifle sent to a long time friend on Kodiak Island (a Coast Guard Bering Sea Rescue Helicopter Pilot). I sent it FedEx to Kodiak Island via Anchorage, it took nearly a month. It got to Anchorage plenty fast but that's where FedEx stops... a private contractor picks up/takes it from there. The almost $100 shipping cost included the storage though.

Which dwarfs in comparison.

Funny thing about usps to greece is that it takes the same amount of time every time whether first class or priority. Always causes me a head scratch!

 

[Mrs C]

Wolfenstark That is one beautiful mod.

Should it ever need a new home you know who will be happy to adopt it.

Aren't there 35 or so more woodvils to be released? Is that really happening, or just a rumor? And if so, when?
