[sdiy] high quality, affordable pots in Europe?

For me, out-of-EU packages mean an UBahn trip across Berlin to the 
customs office, 45 minutes waiting in line, and then a 50/50 chance I'll 
have to pay 20% duties on the package, which appears to depend on the 
mood of the customs officer I'm dealing with at the moment. A weird 
system, to be sure! So I was hoping to find a good supplier in the EU. I 
did have some offers to do a group buy from Futurlec or Rapid, so maybe 
that's the best way to handle it.

Thanks,
d.
