Hi got my print today and have been charged customers £46.61 for a £212 print imported to the UK. Is that right I thought we paid 5% in the U.K. For prints and now I have more time on my hands how do I get the money back ? Ferg

In the details part quote tarriff 9702 and say you should have been charged 5% not 20% as it is a hand pulled silkscreen.

Always good to send with pics of packaging labels/customs declaration etc... - they normally respond and send a cheque for difference pretty sharpish. Just annoying that Royal Mail processing fees are not refundable...oh well, better than nothing!

It's not a good system I bet a fair percentage just accept the full 20% and don't claim back.

UALE really know how to pack a nice set of prints. If you ordered them flat you will be pleasantly surprised. Birch plywood box with simple portfolio and layered heavy paper in-between the prints the whole package will be nice for long term storage. The prints individually are fabulous but as a complete set I really get a sense of the importance of Jasper Johns work. Very happy with the whole package. 'Device' and 'Hatteras' have become my new favorites, stunning as well are '0-9' and 'Target' even 'Coat hanger 1 and 2' are so simple but draw you in to something there that is special. The 'Flags' tho intriguing, I have to admit are my least favorite at this time. This portfolio reminds me of getting a new album and searching through the songs and categorizing them as to which ones touch you the deepest. All in all I have to say these are some fabulous prints.

Did you have tax to pay..?? are you uk based..?

[Poly Mindset]

If in the US I believe taxes were included in the price of the prints. I am in the US.

[Argiebaji]

no worries... thank you... and enjoy the prints..!

I'd love to see these pics but im just getting Photobucket saying "update your account". is it just me or is everyone seeing this?

[stefan123]

same here... since five days

[J0NNY]

Yeah I been seeing it loads

[rosac]

Boycott photo bucket

[avec art]

don't think we need to boycott it, the service is now unusable

[Poly Mindset]

I am sorry about the pics. Apparently Photobucket is now charging $400/yr. to post pics. Any leads on user friendly sites that let you download and post pics to the forum? This is getting ridiculous!

I've used Flickr for 8+ years and love it. Would highly recommend it.

As far as I know, Flickr isn't keen on direct linking their pictures.

Finally figured it out on Imgur.com. Once you've loaded your pics to their site when you want to post an image on the forum, select Large Thumbnail in the size menu at the bottom of the page, then copy the image address. Otherwise your pic will be either tiny or gigantic. Hope this helps someone because it took a while to figure it out. So frustrating!!!

I've been doing it for as long as I've had the account. They even offer bbcode as one of their standard embed codes. Hell, I still have pics up on the Kidrobot forums that I posted 6-7 years ago.
