Prismacolor questions

Hubby has said I can put in order as birthday in April, has anyone been hit by customs

I got mine from the auction site and had them shipped on the Wednesday, arrived on the Friday via DHL international with no customs charges. I paid £53 for the 132 set, but you may be able to get them for less by making a lower offer.

It was Dick Blick I ordered them from. Never heard of them before but a guy in my local art shop recommended them. Went for the 132 so I won't wish I had more colours lol. I figured I might as well as the dollar is so low just now, it's a good buy. They were $92.69 (excl. shipping), which seemed an ok price, although I'll probably change my mind about that by the time my customs gets added on..

Just need to wait for them to arrive now...Can't wait.

Just got my customs bill -- and it's more than I'd expected !!!

Allow for a bill of £24.46 (or thereabouts depending on currency conversion when they do yours!)

Trying to find a link I saw a while back, which showed the rates applied to items, as how they've managed to apply £17.66 VAT onto goods they (correctly) value at £47.46 beats me

I got mine from seller that you recommended, so hopefully I will be the same.
