Mark,
I agree with you. We only recently started shipping to Europe, and all our stock is in the US at present. We are in the process of moving stock to Europe to improve fulfilment for European orders, but doing so in a cost-effective manner means shipping by sea, which can take 3-4 weeks.
We plan to be able to offer much more cost effective delivery to the UK early in the new year, so hopefully you'll be able to take advantage of that then.
And thanks for the offer of attic space - we'll keep it in mind!
Eddy
