Seb71 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 That's new. Others from USA seem to be able to buy their products. Are you using the correct on-line shop for US? This one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dburne Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Why not just order direct from Virpil? I am pretty sure they posted recently there were some issues with Amazon they were trying to get worked out.

Seb71 Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Amazon UK is the wrong shop for US customers. It's unclear from your post, but it looks like you might have issues with your payment to https://virpil-controls.by/en/. Nothing to do with sanctions. Better check with your bank.

Gman109 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 (edited) Keep trying Whiteside, you should be able to get one of those credit cards at least to unlock the restrictions - I had to do the same, every time I've ordered from Virpil in fact, same bat time, same bat channel. Never had an issue with an order, it's just dumb credit card company stuff. That said, should you be unable to get an order through, and if you're really desperate to get a T50, I've had 3, and have 2 up and running right now. One of which I've barely, barely used, mainly just got it set up and in the mounts (you'll need mounts, not sure if you plan on running a throttle or what your plans are there, looks like you have a WH right now which is good, as the Virpil mounts will fit that throttle). Anyhow, if you're really serious, I'd consider parting with that one of mine, plus the mounts should you want them (and you really do need them, and they're cheap), and not worry about the extra $50. The only catch is I'm in Canada, but sending things such as this as gifts has never been an issue with customs for me in the past (I ran a firearms/training company until recently and moved millions of rounds of ammunition and tens of thousands of firearms up and down across the border so I'm speaking from experience). I suppose that's if you're in Windsor California, and not Windsor Ontario Canada, hard to tell from your profile. Anyway, PM me if you're interested in talking more, be happy to help, the more players that get a chance to experience the T50 the better, I'm SO in love with this stick and mounting system Virpil has come up with, I never thought after 20+ years of being a hardcore desktop unit player (having my arm planted on the desk surface and my stick very much ahead/deep and playing that way forever), that I'd be able to transition to this manner of running a hotas so quickly and easily. I've posted a couple vids (have more coming) of my hotas collection and experience, specifically with the T50 and VKB Gunfighter 2 compared to the WH, Cougar, and CH stuff. Can't endorse the T50 and Virpil's customer service and tech help enough, had help from them within 2 hours of asking and saved me a ton of time with some excellent and accurate advice (my own stupidity which they fixed in about 2 seconds).

sea2sky Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Tried 3 Credit cards and called each one to get them to let me spend my money in a foreign country. Hey, I'm in Canada, and none of my cards worked as well. So, I did a bank transfer. Basically, just place an order online on virpil site and specify a bank transfer as a payment method. Right after you will receive an email with an invoice with all the info for a bank transfer. Print it and go to you bank, show it to a teller, make a transfer. Done. 30 days later you get your item. i5-9600K@4.8GHz ★ 32Gb DDR4 ★ Asus TUF rtx3080 OC ★ Quest Pro ★ Warthog on Virpil base Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barefoot Bandit Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Thank you a bunch! I could sell you mine, and re-order as well, but seeing as I'm in overseas for the next 3 weeks, it wouldn't be any faster, I suspect. I guess I could ship from the Philippines...

whiteside Posted May 31, 2018 Author Share Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) PM'd Gman, No reply. Tried to order through the bank but they tell me that Belarus is on the list of sanctioned countries.

Tantalum7 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I was curious about this issue and looked into the status of Belarus. I found an article saying that we were extending a policy that reopened trade with Belarus. I also live on the west coast of the US, and I was just able to place an order successfully with Virpil. My credit card company initially flagged the transaction, but when I indicated that I had actually made the purchase, it went through without a problem. Just wanted to add this data point to anyone from the states who was considering trying to order Virpil gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
