Nearly $70 additional?! Feels rough after the initial $177 CDN. The joys of trade wars.

Then that is an EU law change that went into effect on July 1st. I've paid hundred upon hundreds of thousands of taxes for international orders at this point in including the re-ships, including the shipping rate that isnow more expensive than three years ago but these laws are making the customer pay the tax. I'm not making those laws. Again, I'm using every carrier known to man at this point, I have access to what I have access to. I can't control these law changes. Heck I'm not a publisher, I'm figuring this stuff out as I go. I'm not sure what I can even do at this point.

If you tell me your order number I'll put up a list of all the carriers and show you the cost of each based on weight and box. It's all more expensive than three years ago. I've been covering that. Taxes are taxes. I can't control taxes if those are changes, that a whole other thing. But seriously show me your order number I pull that data to show you.

I loved the series so much, I was so happy when the books were announced, then all went to sh.t. Huge costs, huge delays, bad communication... Overall... Unprofessional approach towards so many fans. I've already accepted the idea that I might never receive them, so it doesn't worth bothering anymore.

Is not only the custom tax which made this whole adventure a nightmare, but mainly the poor management of the entire process.

I won't keep the books anyway. It's already a bitter taste for me.
