    WTF youshop!

    I've used youshop now for 2 years and very careful about what I use them for to avoid any complications. But now they refused to ship a wheeler FAT wrench because its "dangerous goods" WTF???

    Just buy that stuff off Ebay, it'll cost a touch more but if no-one in NZ stocks stuff it's still easier esp with shipping.

    A lot of stuff, the Wheeler torque screwdriver included, most sellers will not sell out of the USA. @scottrods - u don't want to know how much I saved over the local rip off prices then?

    I guess I'm lucky, all the stuff I buy off EBay I make sure the seller will, and does, ship internationally. But then I generally only end up buying stuff that simply isn't here in NZ at the time.

    Bad luck - 2 months ago I bought a FAT wrench and a big set of allen keys. All went through Youshop with no issues, despite them opening the package. You could argue that your intended use of the torque screwdriver has nothing to do with firearms. They f....n annoy me have knocked me back with some things that have no obvious gun connection but come via a gun accessories seller, again by playing their dangerous goods card. Also real annoying is their poxy ad on TV now.

    Good luck. I think they are over 100 buck onshore and I have a feeling that is without a case.

    I assume they class scopes as firearm accessories and won't ship them?

    Or the mount that holds the optics. They refused to send me a pepr style scope mount a few weeks ago.

    A week later I had one sent from China no worries.

    I got a set of Talleys rings sent no probs - pretty sure I was honest with the description too? Haven't tried getting a scope in yet but curious to know if anyone has had issues.

    You should have said it was a wheeler PHAT wench for a hip hop video and then cried about racial discrimination when they refused to ship it.
