Nice ! that means the rest of Europe is soon to follow ;D
and NO customs charges!!!
Even nicer ! With my luck and the vigilance of Belgian customs I'll probably have to pay a small fortune upon receiving :?
-
I hope the Netherlands follow soon ;D Can't wait :P
-
Photos or it didn't happen! ;)
-
Great news! I'll start watching the postman for a large parcel for me then :D

Congratulations! :)
I thought they decided to ship everything to UK and then distribute it from there, dealing with the customs on the behalf of all customers?
Or was it only for Sedition Wars.... ???

That was just for Sedition Wars as there is an office over here willing to do it. Wasn't an option for Zombicide.
-
Although, they are doing it again for the Relic Knight kickstarter... ;)
-
Good that they're doing it, no interest in that one though. Just waiting for Zombicide and Sedition Wars to arrive...
-
It arrived yesteray (picked it up today) and as I assumed, I had to cough up €26 (16 for the customs and 10 for the post office.)
I still think I've done a good deal. That said, I'm holding my breath for when the extra figs arrive. Hopefully a smaller package and less insurance value or else it'll be €26, again... >:(
-
Mine passed the customs! Now I'm waiting for the USPS to call :). In few days I can drool over the game woohoo
-
Got mine on Monday after having to pay the customs benevolent fund donation ::)

No customs charges !
;D :-*
-
Got mine! £11 to customs and £8 to Parcelfarce to pay off their blackmail fee.
Will open the box once children have gone away :)
-
I thought the customs did not catch it but they did. Tried to use the packing slip of 30 dollars and they didn't believe it :P
notw there's a good chance the box will go back to the States... so I recommend not using the pdf that CMON suggest you to use.

Ouch ! Isn't it so that they inspect the contents and put a value on it themselves on which they then calculate the taxes ?

not sure they asked me today twice for more information and I said I don't have. I gave them a link to kickstarter zombicide page and said I did not pay directly for the game but for enabling the company to produce it. I just got a gift for doing so :P
well... I will get the end result today.

Ah yes, but paid for or gifted that's all the same for customs. They only care about the value of the imported items.
Retail price for zombicide is $89.99 on CMON, so they'll probably use that as reference (if they find the site)
-
All the invoices etc were still on the outside of my package, don't know if it would help at all but I can take a photo of it on the box with the values etc?
-
Thanks for the help but they settled for the game value 30 + shipping value of 54 dollars so 84 in total and now they calculate the tax.. It will be about 20€ little over so that's ok. Would have preferred not to pay but this is better than counting the price from the pledge 160 plus shipping :)
I'll get the game next week I hope

Well, not to rain on your parade, but when the rest arrives, customs can put a value on those too, so extra taxes are a possibilty :(
Ofcourse, there's always the possibilty that package is too small to draw attention...

Aye, better to prepare for the worst and hope for the best

On another note, we played a game @ our club tonight and had lots of fun (not in the least with the massive amount of zombies.)
One guy brought along his Ipad with the stat sheet app and boy, it was way better than the plastified stat sheets.
no fiddling with the experience level arrow, automated dice rolls/re-rolls for the weapons equiped and warnings when is character reached the next level.
It almost made me wanna buy an Ipad.
One remark from some players was the player sequence, which seemed a bit odd for an everyone against the board game. Those guys are used to play Decent and chose the order of gameplay.
Also, I had the characters picked at random, and one strated with slippery (Josh), while the second one (Wanda) got the skill at orange level.
Awesome skill !
-
Nice! And I have an Ipad! Just d-loaded the program yesterday. Can't wait to get the game
-
How is the casting quality of the miniatures? Maybe somebody can post some close up shots of the castings. That would be great :)
-
the quality of the minis is fantastic. There are a few threads showing them already.
btw: I ended up paying only 15€ and got the package from the customs woohoo
now if I only had the time to play :P
