Custom work in Europe (UK excluded): Who and where?

[delarscuevas]

Hello, since *%&#%&@ing Brexit, sending stuff for customisation from the EU to @OakleyOneKenobi in the UK no longer an option, because of the insane custom charges. Same goes for @WavecloudCustoms, should he ever resurface. That sucks for all of us.

So... where to go now, when based in Europe? Could we make some kind of reference list here? I'm not a paying user, so I cannot make this post indefinitely editable, nor make it a sticky. Maybe a European moderator like @TheStig can chime in?

Anyway, at the moment I'm specifically looking for folks within the EU who can do the following:
1 Nose bridge tune ups
2 Custom cut from my new M2 XL prizm black donor lens to pro M sweep.
3 Loosening a seriously stuck orbital screw in a Hatchet
4 If #3 succeeds: Custom cut from good as new straightlink Prizm Jade donors to the Hatchet and fitting the lenses
5 Swapping lenses between my Crater and Mars
6 Removing some blemishes on X-metal finished X-metals
7 O-matter water transfer painting in a custom pattern on a Pro M frame (I'm about have it done by Optiek Van Gorp Beerse, dé optiek en gehoor speciaalzaak though).

Thanks in advance!

I hate *%&#%&@ing Brexit. Did I mention I hate *%&#%&@ing Brexit? Well, I hate *%&#%&@ing Brexit.

Just send them with a quality courier service like ups and send with a low value I have never had a issue.

Thanks for the tip. But how about the customs when work returns to Europe?

I am not aware of anyone in Europe that covers all the Service or Custom Jobs you listed. Thats why I have done most of repair services myself.

Same thing applies

on the customs form you can write ‘return after repair’ or similar.
its a gamble but ive had no trouble yet.

Hang in there - I believe all the english poles point towards a referendum on re-joining the EU
