Can imagine their disgust at the bombardment of orders to the uk then a flurry of poorly written pigeon French about postage. Zut Alors 
Fingers crossed, if it goes south, I'm glad I used paypal.

I figured less area for confusion that way Fingers crossed, if it goes south, I'm glad I used paypal. |

We're emailing them as we weren't sure what postage option we should have picked as it was in French and the translation made it even more confusing.

Because postage was unclear for non French nationals & most of us chose the 5euro option instead of 12euro so we're trying to request PayPal invoices for the remaining amount & clarifying the situation

I'm confused. Why are people emailing them? Is it because they might have oversold? No Coach, they had a weird option for shipping that was 7 euros cheaper. But it turns out that it could mean buyer supplies their own courier. So I wrote back asking for an invoice for the additional 7 euros for standard shipping. |

He'd been posting pictures of black on white drawings on his facebook page for a little while. That might be it.

Which address are you guys using? I just used the email that they used for the confirmation of the order. Maybe there is a better one?

KwangHo Shin 🇰🇷 Seoul, South Korea • Abstract Portraits , by Coach on Jan 15, 2014 18:34:12 GMT 1, Thanks for the info.
I ordered one too, but opted for the 12 euro option just because I couldn't believe it could be shipped overseas for about £4.50.
My ordering was mostly guesswork though, so I am resigned to the fact that I have probably screwed my order up right royally. Due mainly to having CSE grade 3 quality French. Not for want of trying. It just didn't click.
I really do hope that they haven't oversold. £40 all in seems very cheap indeed. It's still available according to the website !!

Someone asked a question about this edition back on December 29, no reply. Not looking good. They're only a phone call away, providing you speak French: +33 (0)3 18 87 09 10

LOL and the fact that there are a gaggle of cheapskate foreigners that don't actually have couriers based in France. (Heathens)

I also thought the same as you coach.. 12 euros for UK postage seemed v reasonable! Mange tout!
