Anytime you purchase a product from overseas (either way), you are faced
with severe shipping costs. It's always a risk, of course. I regret that,
but we are not responsible for it.
The power supply issue is not "resolved", and won't be. Part of the problem
with Euro supplies is not only that they are different from US supplies,
they are often different from each other, IE wall plugs vary, etc. Next,
there is the issue of the equivalent of UL approval and etc, which is no
longer a problem when the user buys an approved supply locally. We have
not, and will not in the future, supplied wall warts for the Euros. We try
and make this clear on the phone when we take orders. This fellow ordered
by FAX; that makes things a bit more difficult, as it requires us to FAX
them, sometimes multiple times, and the products margin won't support that
king of outlay for a sales prospect.
The disk issue is resolved; for $10.00, a user can get an upgrade. If
overseas shipping is desired via air, an extra charge (whatever it costs
us) will be incurred.
We have yet to hear from the "swedish person" directly. Until we do, we
can't do a thing.
