    Hope you get sorted. The delivery costs looks horrendous for one screw £7.50! Might be worth ringing to see if they can post in an envelope.

    Hi Are you assuming a long wait for delivery? Or is it stated?
    I ask because I have in the past ordered small parts from China and they have usually taken about six days or so.
    Faster than snail mail within the UK.
    When I die don't let my wife sell my guns for what she thinks I gave for them!!!
