They do ship internationally - just no free shipping, as in the USA ...
International:
International orders will be shipped by UPS International Services or USPS International with additional shipping charges. This process will add up to 5 working days to process your order. International orders will be processed as follows:
- Orders must be placed Online (Posted shipping rates on order confirmation will not apply to international orders.)
- Credit card is not possessed at this time.
- Received orders and Credit Card Billing will be placed on hold until shipping charges are approved by customer.
- Shipping charges will be calculated and be sent to customer email address for approval.
- Upon receipt of customer approved shipping charges, customer credit card will be charged and product will be shipped UPS International Services or USPS International.
- Shipping charges not approved by email will be canceled 15 days from date of email shipping quote.
Even if with a shipping charge, the cost of these bits is extraordinarily low. For example, a Trend router bit on eBay (Oz) is $80 AUD and they are selling it for $3.99 USD ($5.80 AUD). Okay, you can get CMT bits for about $55 each on average. I purchased $40 worth of bits from Peachtree. What would that retail for in Oz? $400-$500 at least. So shipping could be $40-$50.

Thank you.
Meg was in Vienna 5 years ago and wants to return especially for the Christmas Markets.
