I've done so twice and they are excellent to deal with. Accidentally, I ordered my first tripod from them with wrong fastening screw diametre (not that the tripod come with 1/4" screw as standard. make sure when ordering if you want 3/8" or larger). They sent me an adapter free of charge. No big deal - not an expensive item, but still. The second tripod, the 9013, they sent to me directly without demanding money up front; they just included a bill (which I of course paid). Shipping cost wasn't that high either but then I'm on the same continent as they are. I'm now in the position that I would not even consider another tripod but a Berlebach. The 9013 is a great all rounder; It weights about the same as a Manfrotto 055. However, you don't need a tripod that go that high, a 8013 might be a better choice.
