Outstanding news for overseas customers!!!

Dear everybody!
Good news here!!! - One of my customers is a really tough guy, when it comes to everything regarding taxes! Now guess what: He found a tiny, tiny hole in the German tax law hedge, that enables me to sell my future hats which I export to the U.S. cheaper, than ever :-D
So, incl. shipping, PAYPAL, fees etc. etc. I can now get them to the U.S. for a total of 329 EURO! (in opposite to a former total of 367.50 Euro)
Of course I could have kept the savings for myself, but that's just not the way things are handled here at Adventurebilt, and I think this is a good way to proof it.
Well, just wanted to share.
All the best,
Marc

Even though it doesn't change the price for us in Europe still good news!
Any day one of the little guys outsmarts those money grabbing bureaucratic fat cats is a day to celebrate! Woo hoo!

Ok, for us 'overseas' U. S. customers you're trying to reach...what does that convert to in U. S. dollars? I wouldn't know euro if I fell over it...

Is the US still using $0.001 pieces? Here in New Zealand, we've just dropped the 5c piece, so now all goods are rounded to the nearest 10c. It's good to see that the USD can still be discussed in
fractions of pennies.
Kind regards,
Magnoli

In Finland all prices are rounded to the nearest 5c. Dunno 'bout the US.

Marc,
I'm almost hoping you didn't ship my hat yet.

Occasionally we still use fractions of a cent, most notably at gas stations; as in a gallon of gas costs $2.15 9/10. Since there’s no such thing as a 9/10 of a cent piece, the retailer just charges you an extra penny

Don't tell ME, that you haven't received it yet
Sorry pal! HONESTLY, but as I wrote, this is a rule I can make use of on FUTURE orders

Marc

A friend of mine is working on a homepage, so it'll be up one day. As for now I have to settle on reviews from people who have received their hats and are happy with them
You can either e-mail or pm me, but please write something like Adventurebilt Deluxe or similar into the subject line, so the spam filter won't take it.
Thanks,
Marc
