I've had a number of overseas transactions....4 pedals from Custom Sounds, and 4 others from Austrailia, England, etc. Never a problem. I'd venture to say I've gotten much better customer service ordering overseas than I get from the average US vendor. Google exchange rates and you can figure out where they're at. You usually pay a bit more, but not that much more. As far as shipping, it's not bad. Depends on where the pedal is shipping from and to, and the method, but it is not a prohibitive factor at all. Usually takes about a week to 10 days in my experience. Hope that helps!

I think I may have one of the last PPFs that were made, but I haven't looked at the inside yet to see what number it is. I'll try to do so soon. Also, I don't really understand why some people don't feel like the PPF is a "true fuzz." It definitely gets into fuzz territory, IMO. I do keep the fuzz knob cranked on mine, but it's a pretty sweet fuzz tone and certainly not a distortion.
