Hi all:
I’ve met Scott last year at Aristo HQ, when I convinced my wife to make a detour on our NY visit to pick directly a Revo receiver six-pack. Aristo had recently started direct sales, bypassing distributors. Scott was very friendly, and even offered me an ECLST reefer.
I tell you this so as to explain that: a) I wish Scott the best success and b) I was under the impression that, as it was the case with the last days of Aristo, Scott would rely mainly on direct sales (hence the emphasis on site design).
Of course, I understand that international shipping is expensive, but I always expect to pay that expense in full. I’ve bought most of my kit from Trainworld, Switchcrafters and Aristo and I’ve always been billed full shipping and insurance expenses (Usually USPS, slower but much cheaper). And above that, of course, import duties here on the receiving end.
That’s why I am a bit disappointed on seeing that GeneratioNext does not ship international. Oh well, I’ll wait and see if someone (RLD?) will sell some Aristo compatible, Euro-style preformed aluminum track to extend the kids’ portable layout.
Thanks for all your comments
