    How funny that I should just happen to log in today and see this thread.

    I am the owner of Everything Pole Dancing so clearly have not been "kicked off this site" thanks for your defamatory comment ChemGoddess please don't try to damage my business again, even when you think I won't see it.

    The postage charge is clearly stated as £20 (that's POUNDS) being for the UK ONLY.  And I have responded several times to the OP and even sent a picture of the website page highlighting the text.

    I have explained that the storefornt that I use does not have the facility for me to exclude certain products from being purchased form specific countries.

    It is obviously not possible for me or anyone else to send a mat measuring nearly 5ft square across the Atlantic for £20 (approx $30 USD).  I have recommended the website http://www.polexia.net to Alexa76 as they have some mats in stock in the US which will be much cheaper for her.

    EVERYONE IS ABLE TO CONTACT ME IF THEY USE THE CORRECT CHANNEL.  The best way to contact me is through my own website or the email address that is supplied on the order acknowledgement.

    Posting a thread in this forum is clearly not a sensible way to get in touch.

    BAH! I think it's really unfair that they won't accept returns and the companies that do often have such high fees and so many conditions for returning an item that it's not really worth your while to do so.  That's why I do free exchanges on all clothing bought from me.

    I use sponge tampons because they are ultra-absorbent and you can still get up to *naughty activities in the bedroom* even at that time of the month. 😉

    I saw someone mention that comments are being left on the Anderson Facebook page but I can't find it myself so would appreciate if someone would post a link.

    It also mentiones not to use certain types of chalk and powder.

    Can I offer you a sample bottle of a 100% natural pole cleaner?

    If you'd care to send me your address please?

    I'm looking at the BACK PAGE of the instructions that came with my X-pole and it says 

    Cleaning – Your pole will need regular cleaning as you use it. 
    Clean your pole with a glass cleaner or similar non-abrasive cleaner. 
    NEVER use water.

    Just like that, in CAPITALS and BOLD print.

    I doubt very much whether X-pole recommends the use of steam on a pole. For Platinum Stages I'd assume it would be OK as their poles are stainless steel and won't rust (like cutlery) but I would definitely not try it personally as I've seen the pitting and rust spots that can form on the surface just from storing your poel in a damp environment like a garage. Chrome/Titanium plated poles and water (even in the form of steam) are unlikely to get along well.  I'm sure someone from X-pole tech support will be along shortly to give us the official line.

    I'm on Facebook.

    Feel free to add me as I often have news of events, and things and occasionally ask for testers for new pole products.

    Are you SURE that steaming your pole is a good idea? I would be VERY CONCERNED that the steam will penetrate through the holes and joints, then condense into water INSIDE your pole causing RUST on the steel parts.

    I agree steam is great for removing grease but I think it's potentially damaging and also slightly dangerous as steam irons and steamers are designed to be held against a flat surface not waved in the air so I won't be trying this.

    I have to agree with Robyn, pole2pole are dreadful.

    They published a 4 page rant this month (which I haven't seen personally as I would never give them even $1, never mind paying for a copy) about their US Cup competition going wrong which apparently blames everyone else but themselves, there's another self-pitying whinge on their website about pretty much everyone else in the UK pole community because few people have any respect for them here.

    They frequently use other people's copyrighted images without permission and have an outstanding court judgement against them for copyright infringement so they owe one photographer over £3,000.

    They featured an apparent pole newcomer this month without a single picture of her on a pole and barely covered nipples in a glamour pose on the cover. Robyn and I have been unable to find any evidence of this woman ever touching a pole so suspect there is something strange going on there.

    I can vouch for both Indigo Dance, Pole Spin and Vertical being much better quality than the collection of half-truths and misprints in p2p. I've personally met the owners of Indigo and they are lovely girls.

    P.S. I only sell products from people I trust and respect on my site htto://www.everythingpoledancing.co.uk so I stock Indigo and Pole Spin there and ship internationally if anyone would like to try a copy.
