Default USA shipping to UK/New Wallet

Good morning all,

Over my last holiday my trusty wallet of well over 10 maybe even 15 years finally gave up (it gave up a while ago I just really liked it).

So after a bit of research and shopping about I thought I had decided on this...

https://www.saddlebackleather.com/fr...-bifold-wallet

However shipping is nearly $50 seems steep to me, so do we have any American friends I can ask a favor of or does anyone have a nice wallet they would like to suggest.

Tom.

Try Bananaman, beware of getting stung by postoffice handling fees £8 and paying vat on your purchase. I've given up buying anything from the US, as I always seem to get hit with extra charges, unlike stuff from China.

So US Ebayers pay the charges and vat before dispatch, so you don't get stung

Get down to T.K.Max and have a browse around, they usually have a decent selection at reasonable prices.

any decent handmade leather wallet should last a lifetime. just do a google search. there are plenty places here in the UK that make them.

At least your successors wait until you've popped your clogs before fighting over it
