I'm reviving a thread that is a little dated, but having just ordered a reel from Danielsson I wanted to clarify a few comments about the price of ordering direct from them. Until you create a log-in account on Danielsson's site and give an address that is outside of the European Union, it assumes you are in the EU and the price includes a 20% Value-Added Tax (VAT). If your mailing address is outside the EU, the price will be reduced to almost identical to the price of the aforementioned Australian dealer, but will actually turn out less because of the shipping expense from Australia. Danielsson does not charge for shipping (at least, not when I just ordered to the US).

I have no affiliations with any of these companies, just passing on a recent discovery that I made regarding these reels.
