I wonder if they are still available. The link I found is http://www.lateteaucube.com/site/objets?Id=135, but it doesn't work anymore. (Found the link through several french sites, but for instance this one)

I think the original site from where it comes is here :

http://charlesandmarie.com/lifestyle-gems/todays-soupe-du-jour/product/back-off-door-mat/?tx_ttproducts_pi1%5BbackPID%5D=321&tstmp=1176749726

But the articles is sold out now.

the site is in English but Marie is in fact  french.

We have a winner !! Yeah it was to see if it would be cheaper there both product and shipping) not to mention any possible import duties.

Besides being in stock or not: some price difference between some of the sites mentioned......$110,- or UKP 17,99  !! Very nice especially since the pound has dropped so much to the Euro :)

Thanks !!!

So, now it's _my_ fault that the UK people are so stubborn to stay out of the Euro. It was fun while it lasted, ey guys ?  :duckhunt :duckhunt :duckhunt

Damn, Play.com only delivers gadgets and electronics to the UK !

Anyone willing to forward it to me ? Polaris ?

If i'd be in the UK, I'd ordered this right away too:

http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/-/707/915/-/3439315/Apple-iMac-MA878B-A-2-4GHz-Core-2-Duo-1GB-320GB-8x-DVD-SM-24-Widescreen-Mac-OS-X-10-4-Tiger-Desktop-Computer/Product.html?searchtype=genre

Sharpest price for a 24" iMac I've ever seen. Even though it's older stock.
