Where can I buy the Tamour Tool and spare needles? I’m in Australia, the only place I have found is the findingking in Arizona USA and they won’t send an invoice with combined purchases, or respond to the request via email, so I can’t get them, ebay declared me as an unpaid account. Where else can I get some, please!!!!!
Thanks, Kathryn
