    Shipping times from DX?

    7 days from HK to UK :thumbsup: Only down side is that one item (the torch I really wanted) was not in stock so will arrive later.

    Shipping times from DX?

    I'm in the UK. I ordered late Tuesday night (UK time) and got my shipping confirmation this afternoon - Thursday. Quoted delivery time is 7-10 days, but from experience stuff from HK normally takes about one week to get here

    Help Finding a Wide Throw Light

    Surefire L4 has a wide, bright and even beam, which has a wider and better flood pattern than my Eveready 6v lantern with a 4" reflector

    Leatherman Warranty Repair Questions

    By all accounts the CS is excellent and you will get a replacement newer model. If you want the Wave back, then I would quickly get in touch with them to explain the 'sentimental' value of your Wave, and if they can't repair it they will probably return it along with your new one.

    Anybody gonna get the new Leatherman Charge "TTi" ??

    I can't believe that they have retired the 'Wave' - which is a classic and would arguably better or equal most if not all other multitools available today. Same again for the two original 'Charge' models. It looks like leatherman are going the same way as other companies in the...

    Review: Leatherman Charge XTi

    A bit of a negative review - especially in the tone. Not very objective IMO. Either balance the review with all the positive and negative points, or comment on your personal use of the tool. It can't be both. I don't think injuring oneself on a leatherman is indicative of what other uses can...

    Cool little piece of kit...

    An excellent case of a solution looking for a problem, but I would put this on the shelf next to my motorcycle ashtay, and chocolate teapot. My only question would be - why not use a knot, FFS? You can carry an infinite number of knots on your keyring, without the corresponding weight and...

    What are the best deals in UK?

    Whilst not begrudging any UK dealer in making a living, most UK sellers just change the $ sign to a £ and the figures stay the same. I think we should lock the thread, embrace the internet, and with the closing comment - "Just order from the US, it'll be here in a week"

    What are the best deals in UK?

    I sent a letter to Tony @ nr 10, and asked if we had to be the 51st state, then why can't we have the same prices? Never did get a reply. I must admit though, that I get a warm moist feeling every time an imported parcel goes under the VAT and Duty radar. lol - long live the confederacy!
