Where are you located?  The Doyle agent I spoke to is in Florida.  He was very responsive.  I wonder if the shipping is cheaper if you order from a stateside agent. Michael McKay(630) 209-2054 (m)Sent from my iPhoneOn Sep 2, 2022, at 2:18 PM, jpd9668 <jpd9668 at gmail.com> wrote:How did you order from Doyle?
