No VAT is applied to items that are ordered with delivery to countries outside the European Union. In order to verify the applicable VAT rate, simply add the required items to the cart and enter the recipient's information, and our system will automatically generate the final price of the order based on the destination country's applicable VAT. The customer will see the final price of the order before proceeding to payment. Whenever an order is placed with delivery to any country in the European Union, the local VAT rate is applied.

By-order products (i.e., products that are not held in stock) have varying shipping times.

Shipping elsewhere might take a few days longer. If their quality control includes a reel like this, my confidence has been lost.The regular shipping time within Europe for products in stock is 3-7 weekdays. I do not expect to ever buy another Abu Garcia reel unless it's a used one from Sweden. I have no problem with equipment that is manufactured in China, if the quality control and design are held to the level expected of the company that is selling the product. I bought a Penn Squall 15 and a Penn 525 Mag 3 which were also manufactured in the far east, which are great reels. I will not be taking it on the trip to the Outer Banks, as I need gear I can count on. I now own the reel, as i can't send it back. I've worked on many reels, so it wasn't my technique that caused the problem. There is now a gap between the spool and cage as a result. When I opened it up to install the upgrades, a very small amount of leverage caused the cage to bend. There is a lot of plastic inside the reel. The mistake I made was in my exuberance to have a supper casting reel, I bought and installed some upgrades before really putting it through the paces. I'm gearing up for fall surf fishing on the Outer Banks of North Carolina and this was one of the reels I bought. I have a number of other Abu Garcia reels that were made in Sweden, which have all been high quality reels. I was very disappointed with the Ambassadeur 7000C.
