Two can play at that Ron, Greetings from the Valley of the Sun!

I order tube cane from

Ets Donati
Les Cavaliers
83320 CARQUEIRANNE
FRANCE

I send a check for $80...they send the cane. The last shipment was for 4
Kilos. Sort of sounds like something illegal.

I've been making reeds from this cane for about 7 years. I feel very good
about the quality.
