If they ship it through UPS, just call ahead and clear it through customs yourself. You'll just pay taxes and you pick it up from the UPS Depot in Richmond.

Or like Jah said declare a lower value, typically anything under $20 total value does not get charged any brokerage fees (for UPS).

sorry, late reply, since i wasn't on RS for a while.

basically, I was taking orders from 3 different pre-orders... FB/here/msn.

I had a huge excel booksheet and worked for like 3 hours calling people, and shit.

it just wasn't worth it in the end... i didn't even get one for myself, knowing how much it would be, and that i have enuf pedostickers to cover my car anyways...

but hey, at least those who wanted for it, got it... it's as simple as ponying up the dough!

Anyone who feels like ordering something with desu (which btw, was willing to co-operate with a group buy pricing matrix, but never followed through) for us all, i'll jump in :P
