I would order from you again Phill - as long as you don't use the Royal Mail - who are quite obviously shite.

Hmmm,

I see an opportunity here. I might set up a courier business delivering new torches and collecting knackered ones. This time next year Rodney, we'll be mill-yon-aires

WHOA there

Some of you guys really seem to think that nothing matters other than that you get your problems fixed - NOW!!!

It happens that shlt happens! Sometimes, often in fact, it happens that shlt is multiplied when it happens by at least a factor usually ascribed to the inverse proportion to infinity.

If you don't know, by now, that problems exacerbate then you should confine your diving to a less than five metre deep indoor heated swimming pool with several very alert life savers immediately standing by. Even then problems might arise.

Doubly ironic, seeing as the main sorting hub isn't that far from you IIRC.

I think you'll be getting another method for sure.

Lobbox to the lot of you (well the miserable ones )

I've just ordered a little salvo from Phill, and I know he will do everything he can to get it to me as quickly as possible.

Now if I could only trust the couriers as much....

Still, the one he uses is one of the more reliable companies.

Unless you go and pick the unit up physically, then you are reliant on many other factors.

If you want something doing... (and all that!)

Mailing to and from the US

We use DHL overnight from Central Florida to the UK within 5 days. The UK company never send things Royal Mail, ever.

The biggest issue is customs UK randomly charge excessive amounts
(couple of hundred quid) for things of a $20 value.

It's normally now a 'forgotten item' from a recent visit which so far has avoided the problems, I know commercially it's a different proposition.

Luckily High Springs is only 2/3 hours drive!

Salvo no longer make the really nice baby backup torch that I bought just over a year ago. Its the LED one that Phill was selling for about 27.50 or so.
Its a great bit of kit, I just chuck it in my jacket and its there if I need a backup, or if I don't take a torch down, its there should I need one.
Shame they seem to have dropped that one and the cheapest one now is about 60-70 quid.

I'm able to say that I have a Salvo though - LOL!
