I do wish people would stop blithely repeating this as some sort of gospel. It is only really realistic if you live in the US. Otherwise there are tiresome customs procedures and hidden taxes involved, as well as the general insecurity of sending a valuable camera to the US.
Yes there are concerns and additional charges including in Europe and other countries, duties, and any equipment sent anywhere should have sufficient insurance coverage including for repair and CLA. There is another source as has been mentioned multiple times and has had threads on FM; people from all over the world have sent their cameras to I believe Taiwan. So, no, it is not only sending cameras in nor to the US, and in this situation Arca is in the USA. I only mentioned Kolari Vision as an example. There are still probably additional companies that perform a similar option than these 2. Additionally, if you look at my post, I used the running Emoji. People can decide what they want and if they wish to have their equipment modified worldwide.
