Heh, the delay is nothing, I had the delay and then Aus Customs slugged me 35% duty and 22% sales tax (last Financial year) notwithstanding the customs declaration attached by empeg, (they informed me that the US/UK declarations are not recognised over here) they classed it as a car stereo/tape player. when I pointed out that it didnt have a tape mechanism, they said that I could query the decision, but it would effectively have to go to court, and that they would have to hold the empeg for the duration. FYI I am in WA (Western Austalia to all you 'mericans out there) and customs proccessing over here is done directly by TNT with them liaising with Aus Customs in Sydney. I had some difficulty getting hold of a contact name for Aus Customs in Sydney and they were NOT very helpful in the extreme. (customs, not TNT). I am waiting for some more MK IIs to come into the country before I order mine as I want a few precedents set. :-)
