[Elecraft] K3 New Synth boards in Eu?

[David G4DMP]

One solution would be to return the old Synth boards to Elecraft and
have the new ones sent as Replacements. There would then be no charge of
VAT for the either the boards or the shipping.  The only problem is that
the K3 would be out of commission until the 'replacements' arrive.

This has certainly put me off ordering the KSYN3A until the matter is
resolved satisfactorily.
