You shouldn’t get charged much on import as they reduce the shipping value, in the UK resulting in about £30, but I do agree international shipping usually comes at quite a high price.
The shipping is expensive, but come to think about it I'm glad I didn't buy it, though it is a really nice pen, I prefer the London fog or opera models.
That's another nice one Dave. Have you seen the Visconti Homo Sapiens Midnight in Florence that was reviewed yesterday by "Figboot on Pens"? Its a real looker I think.
I have seen it Chris. I thought it might be a little too dark on the swirls when inked but it looks like they’ve done similar to the Silver Dust. I’d like to see one in person.
If you take a look at the Pen Comparison video there's a direct comparison between the Opera Master River Thames and the Medici. th-cam.com/video/Wyr7J004raw/w-d-xo.html
WOW. The close-up view of the material really showed the depth of the swirls. Lovely! 😲
That pen! Nearly bought one from chatterly luxuries a while back but the shipping and import was too much :( love it! Great video again.

That is a beautiful pen :) greetings from The Netherlands
Could you compare a medici and opera master to show the differecnes?
