I'm looking for an ivroid source that doesn't charge a $25 hazmat handling fee? Is there anything out there? It would be one thing if they actually did something different in their shipping but it's shipped the same as non-hazardous. It just seems like a scam.

Allied has binding but thats all. You can get it from Martin but it is not as wide as Allied's and they have the heel cap and end wedge. Just went through all this just a few weeks ago. The Allied stuff is good because it is long enough to go all the way around the body.

Just got mine from Martin today, the end wedge is not very wide so be aware. If you don't need a heel cap and end wedge then maybe go with Allied. My issue was the color, LMI was quite yellow IMO, Martin's is a little more on the creamy side, but still darker than the Iveroid pegs on the Waverlys I will be using.
