[Elecraft] Buying a K4 in UK

I recall seeing somewhere that W&S were now in some sort of relationship 
with Moonraker - though there hasn't been much publicity about it.  I 
notice their address is now the same as Moonraker's.

Moonraker's website now lists 122 products under Elecraft.  You are OK 
if you want a single thumbnut for a KX2.  Otherwise, you are out of luck 
- all other 121 items are "out of stock".  What a shambles!
