Title: Happ - Sell to UK?
Post by: Toe Knee on February 09, 2003, 12:41:44 pm
Hi.
 I've been thinking about building my own set of controls for a while now and after checking prices for everywhere in the uk I found that Happ's prices were the best.  Unfortunatley there webv site only has prices in $'s I know they have a UK base but I couldn't find any info about buying stuff from the uk.  I tired emailing europe@happcontrols.com (I think that was it) a couple of days ago but I've not yet had a reply.  Has anyone in the UK had any experience with ordering from Happ? Have they just used the website?  How much was shipping?
Thanks in advance,
 Toe Knee

I sent an email to europe@happcontrols, got a reply fairly quickly, once I placed my order the parts came next day.

I ordered 4 joysticks, and 40 buttons, and the shippings costs were

Ok,  I'll try again later, probably on tuesday or wednesday.  Where did you get the UK prices from, or was it just usual exchange rate prices?

Yeah you just have to use the current exchange rate I think...I'm sure the europe Happ office will reply to your mail, they replied to me fairly quick.  I must say delivery took quite a while tho - I'm not sure if they had to wait for my parts from USA or whether they just forgot!  I emailed them after I got bored waiting and I received the parts very soon after :)

I sent an email first asking what the cost would be for what I wanted to order, then sent them a cheque.

Part of what I wanted to order wasnt in stock, so Karen at Happs phoned me and asked if I wanted to ship a partial order or wait.

I changed the 4 purple buttons I'd ordered for orange ones, and they arrived next day.
