doubt it...I bet I could still make them turn out a lovely poo/beige colour

They are interesting. I wonder if they are easier to use than normal DH glass?

will they be available over here or do you need to order from across the pond?

Sorry Turtle, but the test batches and such like from DH are across the pond.... they don't sell them over here....

Do you get customs grief if you order from the states?

I placed a small order (for seconds) a couple of months ago which came in under customs charges worked out cheaper than buying non seconds over here and arrived in less than 2 weeks!

It depends on the value of your order Turtle.... if you were to order say just one batch of the DH for $20.00 then you would get away without the Customs ransoms etc., but any more than this and you would get snagged with it, unfortunately.

Thanks for the heads up, i saw it whilst on my hols and decided to treat myself

I just received them, Doesn't quite look like my original terra rods, which are thin, dark brown outside and very stripey, these look a bit like ekho but stripey inside - will have a go and keep you posted!

Interestingly, despite my earlier reply Turtle, I have just picked up my box of DH Test Batches from the Post Office and it has managed to slip through the Customs net this time, despite the value of the contents being over £20.00.....

I think that's the first time that has ever happened!!!

How do you know if it has been caught? My package doesn't have anything from customs on the outside, do you think mine slipped through too?
