Some Timelab tools

[Michael1962]

Hi everyone,

I know I haven't been here in a fair while. Life got in the way of a few things.

Anyway, I was looking at buying some of these tools as I have read some decent reports about them. I can't get them in Australia and even though they are made on Korea, the only place that I can find that sells them is in the US. I can't get them from their website. Have to go through their eBay website.

Anyway $212 dollars worth of tools and getting charged international freight on every item individually. Postage is working out at half the price of the tools. I have written to the store owner to ask why  and whether I should only be charged one smaller fee as I am getting everything at the same time.

Thing is, it looks like the freight is an eBay thing and not the store owner, so there may be nothing I can do about it.

I'll wait to hear from the store owner and decide what to do after that.

The store owner was great about it. Combined the things I wanted into one listing and then I only got charged freight once and not six times like before. SO some tools for watchmaking are now winging their way to me.

Here you go. Hope you are able to blow them up enough if you want to see the quality of the business ends of everything.

Don't you have any watch suppliers in Australia. Have you spoken to anyone in the profession?

Good collection. Well done.

[Michael1962]

There are some @oldhippy but all mostly sell Bergeon or A&F and then the price plummets to some cheaper ones which makes me just doubt the quality.

For the screwdrivers, you could buy Bergeon blades when you need replacements.

That is my plan Richard as no-one in Australia appears to carry Timelab tools. I bought three based on another article I found online re these screwdrivers and it said the same thing about Bergeon replacement blades. I know I can get those here in Melbourne.
