imagine how much the german winner will cry, when the mailman arrives with the invoice for costoms tax. 19% of total value WITH shipping, then add around 4% onto the whole thing and dont forget the money for the german delivery service which can be around 6% of the value with express shipping to handle the tax automaticly for you

@@KenKen004 Since i had a similar issue, the automated system, checks the links for web pages that have an age restriction warning that you have to pass to check them out. That was what got me in trouble for a page thats otherwise clean, even though another link, for a webpage that had super NSFW stuff went unnoticed. So check your links for those kind of things first.

@@KenKen004 Exactly! Especially if they try to incorporate movement into the figure, like with Estelle... all of those strands of hair from her twin tails going in all directions will most likely be a nightmare to find space for... 🤣 I've already had issues arranging Crow, Rean and Altina in a somewhat good looking way because the coats of both of the boys take up waaaaay too much space.

For shipping to european countries, you can under-declare the value and put it as a gift. One thing that's very important too is to know which shipping service to use. In France for example, the de-facto default shipping service is chronoposte, which is the express branch of the (formerly public, now private but owned by the government) French post. Not only does it cost the shipper quite a bit, but they systematically stop at the customs to be able to charge the recipient administrative fees for removing it from the customs (the chance is supposed to be 5%). So yeah generally I'd pick DHL probably. Under-declaring is a legit strategy in the case of figures because customs can't easily disprove your evaluation. There are also a bunch of exceptions on customs for toys and things of the sort, which make it a pretty grey area.
