Did you get hit with import duties/VAT? Or is the selling £680 just the total you could be hit with? Good luck selling at the price you can order direct for, even if you compare with PeWe!
Are you going to wait and see if it sells and try it with a shim? May get my order together and ask Nina for a price, then see where she might give a discount. When I asked last year (A set + 10 extra holders), she said no discount. But maybe if we were both ordering E sets there might be?
Yeah, I paid Create £556, got the message from FedEx About two hours after they delivered, £98 VAT and Import Duty, £12 handling fee.
So altogether about £680.
Im not going to drop any money on it, it’s brand new and now it’s in the UK, fees and duty paid, no hassle.
It’s ideal for someone that doesn’t want the hassle of ordering from China or wants to know exactly what they’re getting and in what condition.
I’m beginning to dislike you hahaIt's ideal for someone with a Harrison 140.
I don’t want to mean about it and I hope you get it, but the price from China is delivered to your doorstep. Your price is for a second hand item in Essex, that will need shipping elsewhere in the U.K.Yeah, I paid Create £556, got the message from FedEx About two hours after they delivered, £98 VAT and Import Duty, £12 handling fee.

It’s not second hand Paul half of it is still in the box it turned up this morningI don’t want to mean about it and I hope you get it, but the price from China is delivered to your doorstep. Your price is for a second hand item in Essex, that will need shipping elsewhere in the U.K.
I’m sure the A is rigid enough, even on a riser block for your machine, and mine. Good luck.
Nowt wrong with that...@Brad93 stop being ocd and get it mounted and in use,your lathe wont care if you have spent a tenner or a bag of sandHere you are, just a simple riser and a centre bush, riser is 5mm.

She only offered me 5%Ordered my E set, but they are out of stock until 24 June. Could add to my order, but shipping seems to be proportional to weight. Nina May give a discount if the order was bigger.
I’ve basically done what you’ve got here today to get me by with my existing t-piece and imperial stud.Here you are, just a simple riser and a centre bush, riser is 5mm.

Should be i machined it flat on the lathe. I’ll blue it up tomorrow see if I’m getting good contact.@Brad93
Nope just the plain nut that was on it originally. With its chewed up corners and all.
Are you making good contact with the riser? If it's rocking slightly that might cause it to loosen.
