Before you go and order directly from France and get caught up in the nightmare of US Dollars vs. the Euro exchange rate plus international shipping fees and customs duties why don't you visit www.petanque-america.com Philippe is the owner and most of his boules especially from OBUT are cheaper than buying directly from France. I recently bought a set of OBUT Match + for basically the same $ rate as the Euro and only had $10 or so in US Postage. I'm thinking about buying another set of the same and just keeping them in the closet for several years until my current set wears out as I don't see the US $ getting any stronger in the near future. I used to buy directly from France when the $ was at 1.18 - 1.20 but at 1.45 - 1.50 all the advantages of the refund of the TVA tax at 19.8% or so which usually offset the international freight have disappeared. Philippe has beaucoup boules in stock or if you want something special he can order it for you. Good Luck.
