If you read the OP (Opening Post/Opening Poster) he said "and ukvisco.com is out of 1/16th inch fuse."

how long does delivery usually take within the UK with pyroplanet? just wondering as the currency was in dollars and they have an American site aswell.

thanks.

Although there is a .co.uk domain, they're based in America. They ship via USPS air, which doesn't take long atall. Their UK-based partner, xtreme survival, do hold stock within the UK if you're worried about customs seizing the package.

I`ve ordered 50 foot of the Waterproof safety Visco from there, and had an email today saying it`s Status: Sent.

I`ll let you know as soon as it gets here

Usually very good service. I've bought the flying fish pack and 1/4" jap from there. Very well packaged in a vaccum sealed pack.

Was going to get some 1.8mm but it sees you guys beat me

It is shipped very well in a vacuum sealed packet so customs wont pay to much attention to it.

I've ordered several times from pyroplanet and have been entirely happy. They also take requests for hard to find supplies.

Any shipping hazard is minimal as the small bundles of fuse are so well vacuum packed in thick plastic that it couldn't be a problem. The UK Royal Mail decided to jam the last parcel so hard into my letterbox that the USPS packet started to shred (and couldn't be removed), but the inner packaging was still intact, waterproof and entirely safe.

my waterproof visco arrived a few seconds ago, so that`s 5 days, not bad at all!
it`s also in 4 layers, the outside is plain brown paper, the inside is a UPS bag, then inside that is bubble wrap and inside that is a vacuum sealed bag with the Visco inside, so there`s no danger involved in shipping it.

Yup, these guys get a big Thumbs Up

Ordered from them near the beginning of last year, excellent service.
