Verified Trader,
This has only just occured to me but with Panini getting involved in the hobby will it be possible to get cards from one of their dealers in Europe? The biggest killer of breaking wax when you are outside of NA are the shipping costs and taxes.
With Panini having a european base if they would let us buy from them all of the EU nations collectors could buy them without import tax (15%-20%) and I am figuring that the hobby has a good section of British, Swedish, Finnish and German collectors (not to mention Bulgarian, Latvian, Italian ect) that could make this viable.
Who is out Panini go to guy on the site? Im sure I heard it was Al Muir but I cant remember his user ID, it could be a good idea for a few of us to ask/convince/cadjole/(stroke?) to see if this would be possible air freight and taxes add $200+ to a case so it would be of great benifit
