Though I am not really interested (else I would have mentionned it earlier indeed) I was just curious to know if someone had asked for the M31 and if so, would that “free” a ‘loose’ M31 sword by any chance?
As I am not especially collecting blistered figurines and I have M31 but broken sword ….still

Just let me know

M31 was requested, but I may receive soon the original sword you need…

Hello Master Milo, congratulations for this incredible auction :D;)
I’ve just seen your message. Is there a small chance so that some of these figurines are still available?

Some bad news about the parcel.
It arrived in France on 7th september and is currently blocked at Paris Roissy airport for customs checking.

I sent required documents (Ebay & Paypal bills) this morning. I think this means we will have to pay taxes.
I do not know the charge yet but in France it is around 20%

Well, Gildor, maybe it’s not the seller’s fault maybe having declared the parcel as merchandise. But of course don’t know the details.
I just remember when Jim Corless sent me those unbelievable gifts I did have some serious problems several times with the customs here, though everything was clearly declared as gifts. My conclusion is that it sometimes depends on the person in the customs-office. This might be true in other countries too.

That’s really bad news for those involved in this and especially for you, Master Milo. It’s a shame, or surely more than that.

I’m on such a situation totally immune….since I’m not in the European Union with each shipment I have to send a bill to the Customs…. Therefore, with each order I mention… loud and clear: “No bills in the package! Please” …. and then send them a counterfeit bill. For example, copy / past Word document… with a reduced amount…. writen on PayPal report….

Several times Joan’s put invoice in the package and than was 35% + VAT less in wallet

I have just a few minutes ago sent a fax to our custom office … this time for new figures PD… at 15 GBP… this is non-dutiable amount….

Very bad news 😡 … but hopefully the cost is shared.
239 euro is a very high entry tax … France government is seeking money

I paid 166€ for taxes + 51 for Customs + 22€ for fees. Damned !

I will check the parcels content, take pics for the wiki gallery and make everyone’s parcel by monday.

Once posted, I will send to everyone costs details, and also requests for refunding shipping + Taxes as it is too much for me to support alone (especially knowing I have to repair my car).

It is not a big deal if it is shared among all us…

as soon as you tell us how much is the refunding, I’ll send you the money, Yves. No problem.
