So the mystery revealed... He lives in the Czech Republic.
Hey! My favorite brand of Absinthe is brewed there! If you can ship me over a bottle of King of Spirits, I'd be glad to get some picks to you poste haste!

Ohhh absinthe....  drools....
Well - that www.multipick-service.com ships to eu for about 10€ - but they are rather expensive (a lot) and they don't have that many slimline picks (for eu locks) I would go with www.devonlocks.com they ship from Uk for like 12-14€ but they carry a lot of slimline picks (called ukpicksets on their site) and they are "cheap".. - Don't buy from outside EU unless your are willing to pay extra duty/tax..

BTW: When buying from devonlocks.com - they do NOT take non-Uk credit cards - so unless you want to send the money/check by post or post them on their bank account - (both options takes DAYS...  ) I would advise you to pay via paypal - that way they ship the same day!

Expensive?! Hah!
To buy absinthe in the USA costs upwards of $100. More than half of that is shipping and customs. And that doesn't even guarantee that you get your bottle (It may be seized).
That being said, 8 Euros is pocket change.

Yeah, its not illegal to import to the US, but illegal to make, so we have to buy from overseas. Czech absinth is just my personal preference.

Actually, it is illegal to import it. Check the US Customs:

it's illegal to import the distilled versions into australia I think there are some exceptions if you call it a collectors item or some such thing - there are some poor quality pretend absinthe's with a lower thujone content to meet requirements - if you like licorice then the "pernod" stuff is for you - I couldn't stand it straight, but with lemonade it's not that bad as an aperitif. I don't think they classify it as true absinte though..
Would like to try the Suisse Verte 65 or the Nouvelle-Orléans one day  now they're expensive.
