I believe there usually is.

Done it several times, to France. Yes, taxes are added. For the shipment, everything depends of the company you choose : with USPS, shipment takes a whole month, and I had to go to post office took pay taxes and get the package. With express delivery (I don’t remember right now which company Nathan uses), it takes less than a week, delivery at home and tax payments is done by internet during transit (and in my opinion it deserves the few bucks more).

My limited experience learns me to add 25% extra costs

Thanks for the answers. I will wait ordering one until I have a trip across the pond. Also gives me time to research further.
 
I am glad that I have never been charged anything when they come to Australia, I think that if it is worth less then $1000AU they just go straight through for delivery.
I am not a big fan of USPS as the tracking always come up as delivered to a Po Box somewhere in the US after about 5 days of being mailed, since I live in Tasmania Australia it's a little bit far to go to South Hackensack NJ USA to pick my parcel up from a Po Box.
This happened last time as well but then a week later it shows up as on it's way on the local post tracking in Australia, why the USPS parcels show up as delivered in the US I don't know but it makes you stop and wonder what is going on.
Here is the tracking from a parcel from C2CE I am currently waiting on :

For those of us brave enough to order internationally these are the foibles. Some countries seem better than others
 
I just don't like the way they say the parcel has been delivered to a Po Box when they most likely mean they have handed it over to the international shipping department, I know I will get the parcel but the first time I saw that message (many parcels ago) I thought "what the hell ?"
I think they can refine their messages a little bit is all.
I think my PMLE and Single Slice both came with UPS.

Interesting thought, and sorry if this has already been asked, but has anyone tried the Finally on vocals?
i have not tried finally with vocals, but i have run my glass butterfly and space heater through my efx loop on my board, and they both sweetened up the vocals significantly. i bet the finally would add some really nice character to vox signal for sure!

i have used the v2 finally on vocals and guitar and i find that the hpf there works well on both.
with a dynamic mic it works awesome with snare and it kick as a recording preamp.
great saturation even with a 12au7.
 
Nathan I can't remember. Will you do a tube swap on a Finally before shipping out. Zero biggy, I was trying to remember if that was even an option.
Yup, absolutely something I'm willing to do. I don't charge extra if it's a tube I regularly stock (12AU7, 12AT7, 12AX7).
 
I was disappointed back when Sushi Box stopped offering finish options and the handwired upgrade. I wanted something in red to compliment two other SB pedals I already had, but never pulled the trigger. I guess this will have to do.

Yeah, they do a pretty good job at covering any tone I’m searching to achieve.

I treasure my custom color @Sushi Box FX pedals in Candy Red, Candy Blue, Prismatic Cosmos, Matte Black and nekkid!
 
"Hey Nathan, what have you done so far on your vacation?"

New SBVT II prototype design, new THE WATT prototype design, new prototype design for something I haven't even told anyone about yet, and yet another redesign of Finally v3 to make it easier to build.

I guess I've also taken the kids to a theme park and a water park, and we've done some general wandering around and shopping. Tomorrow I'll be traveling to Seoul to meet up with a new potential Sushi Box dealer, pretty excited about that. I'm sure the rest of the day will be spent doing touristy stuff.

*sends to you telepathically to start working on the Firebox or other power tube saturation/overdrive pedal*

Also, is the Furthermore still on the backburner? You posted a picture of the physical mockup/proto unit but that was like a year ago now.
