Thread: penn state

WoodenWhimsies are resellers for PSI, in most cases cheaper. What they don't list they can order in.

Tracey and Mike are fantastic to deal with and they can pack more in a Flat Rate Envelope than any other person I know, postage at cost.

Have used and good to deal with.

i bought a few kits through PSI and got stung pretty hard with their o.s shipping rate, cant remember what i paid, but they wouldnt send the kits in a standard flat rate box.

Pen State are fine, but they do seem to have a minimum postage that is high. Other better resellers are beartoothwoods or woodturningz or as already mentioned woodnwhimsies. All good to deal with and will even pack and if asked, advise how much room is still left in the minimum sized box, to add some more.

When buying from overseas i believe that as said earlier there are a few places that capitalize on the postage and charge way to much. It is great to see that we can still buy items and only pay the minimum postage that we have.

hello everyone

Hi Tony

I just got an order in from Penn State. They were great in prices for some items, however, for the more common pens you can't go past David at Timberbits.com in Australia as they work out a lot cheaper and a much faster and cheaper delivery service. Penn State have a lot of exotic pen kits including a lot of civil war and military type kits that are hard to come by here. They have an excellent range but as mentioned earlier there is a set postage from the US which is around AUD$13. If you are buying in bulk it would work out ok. They will also send a catalogue with the first order. Their delivery time was around 2 weeks from the placement of the order. Overall - honest and reliable.
