Has anyone had success ordering the Makita 5143R and/or the 5103R from the UK?

I have tried numerous times with no success.

If anyone does or is trying please let me know.

Hi E.H.,
I tried there website but they do not have a international shipping option. I am going to contact them by e-mail and see if it is possible.

I tried a similiar web site on two seperate occasions that had an international shipping option. It said that they will contact you with shipping costs, but I never heard back from them either time.

At one time, I posted a note on the Carpenters Fellowship website and thought I found someone who would sell them to me, but for some reason it never went through

It seems kind of odd how difficult it is.
I will keep trying and let folks know how it turns out.

Collin,

to bad you are having so much trouble. It is always good to know some folks over in the old countries. They will have to be trustworthy though.
Occasionally I need things from Germany and I can just have the stuff shipped to the folks over there and they send it my way. I just have to carry all expenses but it is worth it. Good luck my friend.

Actually that got me thinking. Would those guys send stuff Europe wide? I could figure something out for you. If you can have them ship it to Germany I can get it over here for you.
