The Creature Collector

Well crap. I just got paid ;.;

fred

Yikes!

Lasciva

Yup ! x'D The treshold value from where you start paying fees depends from country to country, it was 15£ in UK, but now with the new laws from what I've understood you got fees starting at 0$ so... :')

fred

You have to pay customs on gifts, too?

Lasciva

That doesn't change the problem which is to ship to EU/UK ^^' also US shipping to EU is a killer lol

fred

Like USA - EU/UK penpal happy mail club. (Not run by Pikaole because it sounds like work to coordinate and Pikaole already does a lot of work!)

fred

What if we set up a club where someone you CAN ship to then re-sends the secret shop items to UK & EU? Maybe people in the USA can trade for stuff from the UK/EU that we can't buy off Etsy because of the recent tax changes >.<;;

pikaole

Yes, I'm sorry I couldn't ship to the UK and EU as easily as before. After the change of international postal law, everything became too complicated T_T For now, it seems that the only way is to use another country address or to give as a gift.

Lasciva

Oh ok ! I think you know more than me ^^

pikaole

Oh, what I know is that even if one is shipped, the production unit of the product cannot exceed 1000 or it cannot be manufactured in a factory, so this is new information. I'll have to look into this again... But I still have a few other issues besides that, so it will probably be difficult do sending EU/UK for now.

Lasciva

I have received "mass-produced" items by artists out of EU, I just had to pay custom tax. I'm pretty sure your "mass production" fits in the "small batch" standard too :) Plus you only ship a little bit of your products in private shipment, it's not like you're shipping 2000-3000 products in 1 package towards Europe !

pikaole

Yeah I read about that from some articles when I study IOSS system. I've heard that's only if the artist product is a small batches! In my case, there are items that are mass-produced, that can be problem😓

Lasciva

By the way, you can still ship to EU/UK, even without IOSS, we just have to pay custom fees once we received the item... It was already like this before, now they just put that stupid rule for puchases under 150$ (I'm not sure of the exact value) but if you ship it anyway we just got to pay custom fees (which we have to pay for purchases over 150$ too hahaha)

pikaole

thank you! The secret shop is not possible, but the basic reward is still shipped :D

awwww, well, i'll just have to wait until shipping to germany is available again then... but all the products look stunning!

pikaole

Hi Amber, Unfortunately, it is only sold as a set right now! T_T I would be grateful if you could understand!

Is it possible to just get one of the pins from the enamel pin set? I really like the bat one, but I don't really need all of them

Don't be! I absolutely understand it :) love your work <3

pikaole

yep, don't forget to order until 12th :D

pikaole

I'm so sorry too😭

pikaole

Thanks for your order Ellie :D

Ellie Baines

So excited about the enamel pin set! I didn't order it last time and I regret it, so I am grateful to be able to order now!

Damn, I wish I was in the available shipping regions :( so sad

Jodi Stanton

pikaole
