Avoid purchasing items from Leica Classic Marketplace if you are in the US. A 10% Tariff will make the cost most likely more expensive than buying from US leica vendors, and UPS delays are making it impossible to receive your package.   The Leica Classic marketplace is not very informative or helpful.

What if an item is not available in the US?

Do you know that the Classic Marketplace only use UPS to ship to the United States?

As Andy says, these are unique items. You of course save the EU Vat of around 19% which you don't mention.

Another strange first post!

My last 2 purchases from them they would not take off the Vat even though their price mentioned that the VAT was added to the quoted price. SO "Buyer be VERY aware" with Leica Classics.
