Hey there, Are there any plans to have resellers of the Netduino in the EU? It can be quite pricey to order goods from the US when they get intercepted by customs. So far I have only been able to find the Netduino in MakerShed. Regards, Xander

Hi Xander, welcome to the forums!

We will have resellers in Europe (and probably Asia and Australia as well) in the coming months. Today, MakerSHED should be able to serve you well. But we know that Europe is a priority (for cost reasons) and we're on it...

Hi Chris,
I live in Poland so I'm also very interested in Europe based resseler. The closest distributor is in Czech Republic http://informatix.mi...microframework/

They carry many different .NET MF boards so I hope yours will be available shortly too :-)

Best Regards,
Szymon Kobalczyk (MVP)

PS: Thanks for this great project!

I live in Czech Republic, but I really can't wait any longer, so I've ordered Netduino from Proto Advantage - $5 international shipping is the lowest I've ever seen, it is almost the same price I would get from local miloush.net (~1.5€).

The biggest hurdle in shipping from outside the Europe is the customs. Even worse when you buy on behalf of the company.
i.e. Packages travel approx. 3-4 days from US and then the customs works on it for at least 5 working days (+ one needs to pay taxes, send papers forth and back, etc.)

Hi everyone, first post, new forum :) I just purchased mine from Canada, to be shipped to me in the UK, from www.proto-advantage.com. They just sent me my shipping notification. I dont expect too many problems with customs, it is low value, and even if they do charge it is not going to be much. I suspect in time it will be widely available worldwide. Looking forward to getting it! :D

Bought and got the goody. Apart from having to e-mail my company's data the order process went fine.
