Only 35€?? The 21% of € 300 would be € 60. Not counting other Fedex rates. How much is the shipping of Sideshow to Europe?

i don't know where you live but for a PF to France:

shipping 70 - 110$ depending size box closer to 70 for wasp
customs fees depending on carrier (yes ...) can be 0 can be 60$
vat 5 - 20% total price (statue + shipping) depending on carrier
carrier fees 12$ depending on carrier but all quite the same

it's like playing lottery and i dealt with all main carrier.

the only thing they all have in common is they don't care of what you say
you pay or they send back the package (even threatening you).

Yes. It was around 35 euro for iron man, cap, the 4 turtles. Im from belgium. They were deliverd by dhl, ups and fedex. So everyone is handling the same percentage of fees. Its gone so low because ss switched indeed back to the other hamonized codes.

As an FYI, it seems that sideshow has started listed the materials used in a piece on the product order page itself. Like for instance it says on the Wasp piece that the materials used are polystone and PVC so there will be an element of PVC in this piece.

From first hand experience, i know codes mean nothing to the UK Import dept.
Some items are 5% Statues are 20%. I'm not sure why these codes exist?

I'm waiting on a statue from a US Ebay seller at the moment. They used the code GIFT, which should mean 0% Import Tax to pay.
From what i can tell, using the tracking number, charges have been raised

Yeah, I would think the wings would be pvc. Polystone would be too brittle.
