I tried telling them this is killing USA based business' meh seems like UK is treating them well. I still wonder why the discussion forum focus is over ".com" here but all there customers seem to be from UK not USA. Good luck! maybe try only getting what you NEED from them then order the rest of your stuff locally. If Brute Force Isn''''t working your not using enough... Edited 12 Years Ago by Carbon Tuner

Yes, the shipping charges for the hazardous chemicals are a bit hard to swallow, however, I couldn't find anyone else on the interwebs that had the kind of support, starter kits, and information that easycomposites has put together. So they get my first investment in this industry as a result. Nice work! I am curious, how long does it take for it all to arrive on the doorstep here in the USA?

I tried telling them this is killing USA based business' meh seems like UK is treating them well. I still wonder why the discussion forum focus is over ".com" here but all there customers seem to be from UK not USA. a .com web address is always more desirable than a .co.uk or others and to be fair the forum is not just for EC customers but for anyone interested in composites. You will also notice that the retail websites are .co.uk setting up and operating a warehouse thousands of miles away is no cheap or easy accomplishment and would require significant investment to get it up and running. It quite simply may well not be a financially viable prospect. True there may a a couple of dozen customers from the USA on this forum regularly buying goods but a couple dozen customers doesnt support a warehouse and its a big risk to assume youre business growth will be adequate to support a US based distribution warehouse. not forgetting different tax and export/import laws, the need to work out supply contracts, staff costs etc etc.
