MOVA Self Rotating Globe, Venus Classic (4.5")

I originally noticed some of these elsewhere and I liked them immediately. I saw that the company, Mova, was selling them on Amazon so I bought one. It was pricey at around £186 in my opinion but I wanted it so it was worth it to me. The problem arose when the item was despatched from a subsidiary in Germany called Mova Europe. The good old UK HM Revenue & Customs demanded an extra £48.06 before they would release it for delivery in the UK. Strictly speaking I realise this isn't the fault of Mova rather its HM Revenue & Customs shamelessly profiteering but nothing was mentioned when I originally ordered it and nearly £50 is a lot of money. The actual item, however, is really good and would be getting 5 stars but for the issue mentioned. It spins away in ambient light and gets glowing remarks from everyone who has seen it. I would even think about buying some of the other planets except for HM R & C's colossal greed!

C'est un produit tellement beau, et si reposant. Je ne me lasse pas de regarder le globe tourner. C'est mon deuxième achat après la terre. Je vais acheter tout le système solaire... c'est vraiment d'une grande qualité. J'adore

Would be a 5 if not for the insane price.

I have a small collection of MOVA globes. I enjoy looking at them.

Este es el segundo que compro. Siempre que llega un invitado les llama la atención como gira solo. El mecanismo que tienen es muy interesante por el magnetismo y la rotación de la tierra, siempre es un tema de conversación. La base es muy bonita y da el efecto de que esta flotando. El color de Venus es brillante queda muy bien en cualquier lado de la casa y resalta un poco. El otro que tengo es Mercurio el color es gris café claro y se llega a perder de la vista. Los dos me encantan.

美しく神秘的です 到着に時間はかかりますが、待つ価値はあります☆
