I'm waiting too, but North Star has very reasonable shipping rates to the USA.

25% of your order is reasonable with a minimum of 5 1/2 Pounds? You and I consider reasonable very differently especially when order things as small as miniatures. Each time you buy one 4 Pound miniature it is costing you currently $1.39 in shipping fees. If you buy less than 5 models at that price, you are still paying the equivalent of $7.59 in shipping. I know overseas shipping is different, but it is hard to justify to me paying that much knowing that from a U.S. based retailer I could pay as little as $.99 or around $3 to $4 for 10 or so miniatures. No thanks, I prefer my shipping on the cheaper side and to not increase by 25% of my order each time I add something to my cart. The only time I consider it is during a Nickstarter and even then the freebies have to have enough value for me to consider it. Last time, the value wasn't there for me. I am hoping this time it is different.

Keep in mind that as long as they are minis and not books you will get a VAT discount, so it’s 19%, but 25% extra for shipping you end up paying something very reasonable.

Last time I ordered, I didn't get any discount off the prices that were listed.

As far as I can tell, neither did I.

Things change all the time, my dears.

Changes at North Star mean that anyone ordering from outside the EU has the VAT of 20% removed at checkout (not books). And following 'Leave', it'll include everyone 'cept the Brits I presume.
