- November 22, 2013, 20:58:19 PM oh lord how selfish of me, so in humble grace I apologize to you my fine 0hi0 friend sorry. So to make up for this fault I have order this part for you in chrome, along with 2 other items I think would look really nice on your bike, now out of respect to my generous spending on your behalf of funds I can ill afford I would only ask that you mount these parts on your bike as required with the manufacturer's instructions and left on your bike for at least one (1) year.
I am sure the rest of the forum members would agree with me.......

It was no big deal, and I was glad I could help you out.I have spent too much time trying to find an aperture for an old (very old) tang sights for one of my singleshot rifles; found one finally on eBay, the seller would not ship to anywhere but the good old U.S.A. But, thanks to Greenbarn, I now have an aperture for my tang sight for my singleshot .45-70.
Many thanks, GB. Much appreciated!!

- October 28, 2013, 20:51:42 PMJust found (at long last) an aperture for a vintage sight/ Been looking for one for over a year. Problem: seller won't even accept emails from non-U.S. email addresses. Sight aperture is only $20.00 U.S., would have had it shipped to my father in Montana, but can't even email the guy.
Poop.

- October 18, 2013, 11:33:58 AMMost of the time its the shipping cost associated with shipping to Canada. It's ridiculous. UPS likes to spike up the cost and add on the customs fees and what not. It's just not worth it to pay the extra cost. Sometimes you'll luck out and find a company wiling to ship for a fair price, but other times we get killed on the shipping cost.
I don't live close enough to the border to just walk over and do that... It's kinda tough.

- October 16, 2013, 08:07:11 AMJH this is not on my part a moan or a complaint or whinning, I have grown accustomed to this and have learned to live with it. It is a apin every so often and we just adapt to it. This is more just a statment of fact.
