Just ordered the Daniel Williams spleisnadel.. I received a message from Jan who said that his contact is [email protected] and if a bunch of us want to order them, we could possibly do so as a group and thus save shipping costs. THe cost is 21.58 Euro or 25.00 US. I will let you know how it works when I get it. Joyce
