@optic
I didnt know either!I guess this is the same box they send dakimakura covers and the likes in.I guess they could send little moe-imoutous aswell int those

@Kairu
Yeah,believe it or not.I was impressed myself when the postman carried it to my doorstep

@Shinky
Yay! Finally someones envious of my loot!

@Snark
Yeah working hours are pretty bad lately >.< Hope to bring the Kyouka Review as soon as possible

@Q
Yeah the Taxes are bad but buying figures over here is more expensive most of the time and takes alot longer to arrive.Sure it hurts to see the money for 2 figures be gone but theres no way around it.
Well the health department has some pretty bad working times from time to time.Im nearly up to 12 hours a day at the moment and there are still patients that cant be served o.0

@Lelouch
Yup,its that bad.19% German Tax and 6% EU tax

@Feldi
Well we gotta bleed for our hobby and everythings well when you open up the box and smell the sweet smell of paint and PVC XD

@Lyli
Ohhh You like the Claymore figure?Didnt expect that! Seems like i discovered a new part of your personality ^^

@JimmPantsu
Na da bin Ich doch beruhigt das du dich nicht mehr so schlecht fühlst.Momentan bin ich aber auch echt bekloppt beim Geld ausgeben

@meronpan
Im glad im living on my own.I doubt my mom would have said what a beautiful haul ^^;;
Yeah,lots of lovely figures in the package and the SALE package is still on its way.My figure spending has gone bonkers recently

@phossil
Yep you spotted the Sabers right! Actually im more a Tohsaka boy but Sabers fine aswell ^^

@GnDynames
Yeah as soon as you see the figures everythings fine again

@Coco
Just check my other Post called Detolfs Get and youll be able to check yourself

@Superrats
That would probably be the way to enjoy your figures the most but im such an unpatient guy that I have to unwrap everything in a hurry.I guess I know now why youre reviews are spotting all the itzybitzy faults and details.Week long study!

@Jesus
Actually there were no packing peanuts but air cushions inside.Love to play around with packing peanuts but HLJ isnt using them
As much as I support Gundam Cosplayers the box stay mine! Need its for storage purposes ;P

@Saku
So how high is the Canadian Tax?

@Jacques
Yeah,its sad but theres nothing that can be done about this

@lightning sabre
MY Sale Package is still on its way^^;;
these are just normal figures and some discounted items (revoltechs)

@Jay
Hehe Nah,Im no crazy swiss guy called melonpan

@smithy
Haha how about me lighten your load! ^_^

@Persocom
Yeah they served as pretty good stress relievers (not in THAT way XD )

@Roy
It definately saved shipping.Well I knew that ill have to pay another 25% when the package arrives so it isnt really shocking and it isnt bad anymore as soon as you hold the figures in your hand

@Shiddo
Well we have 19% German Tax aswell and 6% EU tax for “toys”
Everything under 22 Euro isnt taxed.Everything above 22 Euro and Under 150 euro is taxed with 19% and everything abive 150 Euro is taxed with 19% + 6%
Your system is nicer ^^

@leonia
Thanks!

@Jem
Its nothing to your hauls ^^
Yeah I cant wait either.Hope work allows me more time soon

Ooooh. Awesome haul, Blowfish. My gosh – the custom fee is killer. I see the ALTER Penguin Musume. I think she’s a rather pretty figure. I can’t wait till you can manage some time and can give your new loot the proper love and attention ;]

Here in Czech we have import tax as well. I think 19% atm but if u manage to get in some limit i think 140-150 euro u are spared of tax. I rember when I got taxed for my first orders =_= thx god right nex month they changed the limit from 20euro to those 140-150. Thats why I try to split orders on smaller ones… usualy some extra shipping is still less then possible tax =_= You dont have any free import limits in Germany?

Anyway I find that table set interesting. Gotta check it out ^^

I’m guessing you saved shipping since they packed everything in a box that a dog could fit in ^^ 90€ O.O That’s scary, and sorry to hear about work, but I’m sure it will work out and you’ll be fine ^^ especially since you have such nice loot to come home too

Holy crap that’s a huge box of loot. Well, I’d say the wait was well worth it. Never gotten a package that big before, hopefully some day XD At least these figures should reduce your stress from overworking I hope ^^

LoL jeez… I know it was a pretty good sale, but I didn’t buy that many just cuz it was on sale XD Well, good luck with the review and hope work doesn’t kill you first ^^

god, the 25% import tax is really exorbitant. Q said it right, with that amount of tax, it’s equivalent to at least 1-2 figures losses.
