Swoon, by absyrd on Mar 16, 2007 12:29:56 GMT 1, I got mine and it is bent clear in half. They posted it in between two pieces of cardboard with NO "do not bend" markings at all.
Otherwise it is beautiful.
Emailed them and am waiting for a response.

Swoon, by absyrd on Mar 17, 2007 22:32:28 GMT 1, A friend of mine also got theirs yesterday and it is majorly creased.
Both were shipped between thin layers of cardboard.
I've gotten prints before shipped flat in cardboard, but there were always at least 4 layers (plus additional supports usually).
Both of our emails have yet to be responded to.

Swoon, by pezlow on Mar 22, 2007 18:04:18 GMT 1, Still haven't got mine or a customs note. It really depends how the customs declaration has been made. If they have been declared as being prints costing $100 then the customs should, strictly, level a customs charge. But in my experience it is very haphazard. Sometimes they do and sometimes they don;t.

Seems like a lot on a print worth about ยฃ60 when the duty should be 5% customs.hmrc.gov.uk/channelsPortalWebApp/channelsPortalWebApp.portal?_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=pageVAT_ShowContent&id=HMCE_CL_000906&propertyType=document
Am I missing something or have they just overcharged you? I've got a Logan Hicks that they're holding and I'm not sure how much they're going to hit me for. (they haven't put a card through my door but I know they're holding it because its being tracked online)

Ah, that makes things a bit clearer. there are some good discussions on the lightside if you do a search for 'customs'

Swoon, by pezlow on Mar 26, 2007 12:26:06 GMT 1, Got mine today - not picked up by customs and managed to get through unscathed but the packaging is woeful.
Looking at the postage costs it cost the vendor $7.95 to send so they made $12 on the postage charges. I really don't mind because it is a charity project and frankly I won't miss $12 but I would have been distinctly vexed if it had been damaged in transit.
The print itself though is lovely. I really don't mind the size as I could do with a few smaller pieces.
