Or know when they expect to ship? I got my tracking from TNT saying delivery scheduled for tomorrow hope there is no nonsense with customs....
Nothing to worry about customs wise. Get the Phillips screwdriver out!

I remember having a conversation with them around the KAWS NGV book when the called me, which they duly ignored and sent the full charge in the post later on.

Not sure it's frowned upon to post numbers but I did get a customs text saying I owe £129. I need to check the actual tracking email AA sent me but I'm in the UK and receiving an Observer.

I also prefer Insect's full length pieces as just the eyes or face don't do it for me.

Hmm....I’d have to check back but I think it was suggested by AA that they’d try to ensure that it came through with a 5% fee. I’d certainly be claiming back that additional 15%. Seems a little bit of pot luck with customs at the moment as to what you’ll end up being charged. It does make purchases from Europe a little more odd-putting or at least you need to figure in that you’re likely to be hit with an additional 20% fee at worst. I’ve not had any news about my Observer yet but will advise if I have been stung with the same.

Although saying that, the courier doesn't have an option to pay online and the tracking doesn't show the charge. I'm not clicking the link I got through the text, I'll wait and see if it shows up with an invoice.

Paul Insect • The Reflection, Observer , by Alexander 88 on Jan 20, 2021 12:07:48 GMT 1, Received our blue reflection yesterday, it looks superb. I’ll post some pics next week on my Insta if anyone’s keen to see it in-situ 🤙
The circular format is a huge bonus IMO; makes it far more playful and appealing when hung amongst other traditionally framed rectangular/square pieces. Definitely going to divide opinion though, a giant glittering, multi-coloured face is bound to give off some kitsch vibes!
Congrats to all that landed a piece 👍

My shipping confirmation and tracking has just come through now. Will find out what happens shortly. My understanding is that this should be 5% import fees but depends on the code used to send.

Paul Insect • The Reflection, Observer , by kawsect on Jan 20, 2021 13:06:17 GMT 1, My blue reflection comes today. $44 USD in duty needed to be paid.
I got an email from Avant saying the hanging wire is faulty and not to hang it up for fear of failure. They’re working on a solution.
FYI to anyone who has a reflection and possibly didn’t get the email.

Looks great! Did you already replace the wire or you hung it straight out of the crate?
