Panatime
Has anyone bought any straps from Panatime in the US? If so, was it any good and was delivery OK?
They have a strap I want but unless I pay $22.50 for tracked shipping on a $24 strap, it's $7.50 for UPS International untracked (7-14 days)
What do you reckon?

Re: Panatime
I think I would continue looking for a UK supplier unless you are really in love.

Re: Panatime
I bought one of their straps and it arrived just the other day...can't comment on the int'l shipping cause I'm in the US, but the quality was decent. For the price, I am pleased.It'sAliveJim wrote:Has anyone bought any straps from Panatime in the US? If so, was it any good and was delivery OK?

Re: Panatime
Likewise, I've bought a few straps from Panatime and have been very happy with the quality. They ran a sale around the new year where they were clearing some straps out for very little money. I'm US based though so can't help you with the UK shipping.vikingdrvr wrote: I bought one of their straps and it arrived just the other day...can't comment on the int'l shipping cause I'm in the US, but the quality was decent.

Re: Panatime
I bought a strap from them recently and paid the $8 USPS service to the UK. It arrived in about a week no problems.
Strap was pretty good quality.
I'd have no issues using them again.
Go for it.

Hmmm, maybe I'll take another look. Thanks ABW

Re: Panatime
Maybe someone else (or several members) on here wants one also and you could maybe get a group buy and split shipping cost and possible get a discount on the sale price for multiply purchase.

Re: Panatime
PS> Just checked Panatime's website and IMHO C & B is a better website and they have a better selection.

Re: Panatime
They've got a Spring Sale on right now with some pretty good discounts http://www.panatime.com/springsale.html
Might tip the balance.

Re: Panatime
I'm going to get a couple of NATOs and something from the Spring Sale.
Anyone care to join me and share postage?

Re: Panatime
Drat; looks like the Spring sale has finished just as I was about to buy something.
I particularly like their heavy NATOs as some are longer than average at 305mm; which I don't seem to be able to find in UK.
