Seen a few people on here email a couple weeks before visit to express interest and were able to get what they requested once they arrived.

I had a great experience at Gandelman, though be aware the prices are 10% higher than US retail price.

Yes, this is true, they used to not charge tax but instead, they now charge 10% tax for US buyers. I don’t believe they do that for other nationalities.

Thanks for all the replies. Good to know about the 10% tax! Any reason why they started adding the 10% tax to US only?
