When I can buy the same thing at full retail price and have it shipped (air freighted) from UK for example for c. $30 freight as a single item, even if I was prepared to pay the full German price, that still is $130 vs $167 AUD. Real world prices of course are substantially less than Wiha list...

Nice set. Not that one would buy it locally, but the tray would be nice. I bought my first set in Spain a few years ago, and have accumulated perhaps 70% of the set items. As an indication of how much we get bent over in Australia, and why one does not buy locally the images show the German...

TBS Aachen, I have had 6 orders in the last 3 years ( total c. $3500 AUD) from TBS Aachen, excellent source to buy from. Also dropped in to say g'day on my way back to Mainz, on a day trip to Remscheid last year. Great shop. You don't get walls of Stahlwille, Knipex... in Oz My first choice...

Your welcome Champo. I certainly have ! I have had 6 orders from them, total c.$3130 AUD since 2012. I even visited them last year as side excursion from a day trip to Remscheid. Nice shop.

Amazon is very inconsistent with what it will, and won't ship. I have nada a few deliveries from the DE site though. Shipping out of Germany is usually reasonably priced, Shipping out of US is usually barely acceptable/ludicrous. One particularly amusing example a few days ago, ( ebay or...
