Hey guys, I'm waiting for my MF's from pakshak to arrive. I ordered...
12 of 16"x16" MF $27.00
2 of 24"x24"MF $9.50
2 of 25"x36" waffle weave towels $24.00
1 pack of 6 polish applicators $3.95
price of shipping was only $25, I was quoted and charged $32 but then got $7 refunded

Total price $89.45 or about £52 in proper money

Just make sure you mention this site to get your discounted price.

I know this is the UK Retailers Listing thread, but as he ships to UK I class him as a honorary Brit

hehe damn right, after a 3 hour flight, and a 20 minute drive home, i go into the garage, and start bringing all my products out the cupboard planning my detail the next day hehe.

i am still a novice detailer, but i try my hardest

OK, Brits. I know I have no standing in this thread ... but ... sounds like you are all faced with the problem of stupid shipping/import costs. So why don't you organize a group buy? I would think you could save a ton' o' pounds on PakShak and other products? If you want to do this, just take it into the Hot Tub and start organizing it. I'm sure you could beat the American capitalists.

I agree totally - I'm holding off ordering from Ranney as I am sure that there are a whole load of Brits who would benefit from this. Alternatively how about we ask Alex nicely if he could start to stock Pakshak MF's - surely it'd be worth it long term? I'll invite him to comment.

The guys at AG in OZ are looking for a UK distributor for their towels. I have to say their Ultra MF's appear to be every bit as good as Pakshak in fact maybe a little softer & plusher & the price is comparable or better.

I was thinking of bringing a large batch in myself. They have a massive range of products inc. the superb ultra MF wash mitt.

I will probably contact Alex about these as it's probably better to keep all the good products under one roof.

My thoughts exactly - I've emailed Alex this morning for his thoughts but any Autopian support might help us get this thing rolling - is it worth also getting some supporting figures etc from Ranney and AG?

I have e-mailed Alex this morning with details of AG. If he's interested I'm sure I'll hear quickly.
