Overseas (international) Shipping- Stonekeep Armory
Posted: Wed Jul 05, 2006 4:18 pm
We have traditionally NOT shipped outside the US for reasons of rural location, which requires me to send an employee (or myself) on a trek to the closest post office. The cost of this has normally been more than the profit margin of the product allowed; therefore we have just not done it.
We do have a company in Germany which has advised us they will be carrying some of our products and make them available in Europe, and we have added their contact info to our website.
Several SCA groups have contacted me recently asking me to lift the "ban" on shipping outside the US for reasons of not being able to find comparable armor at a comparable price in their areas. I know we just shipped some leg sets to Japan for that reason, and some to Canada as well.
What I have decided to do is lift the "ban", and specify one day per week when we will send a secretary to the post office with international packages. Hopefully this will generate enough sales to make the combined sales worth the effort, so if you are outside the US and have wished to purchase our armor, then get the word out in your areas, so it will generate enough business to keep the program active.
Please see our website under "NON-US Orders" for particulars about the program.
