Looks like the one before that went for ยฃ118, which is basically no margin for the seller. I guess you may well be able to pick one up for ยฃ150 at the moment.

Dolk โข Girl With Teddy, by spence on Sept 6, 2007 21:05:21 GMT 1, Quoted from slacker on Dolk forum.
i never got a customs charge with mine but norway is not in the eu so you are liable to pay duty on any item which is over ยฃ18 or so. the post office pay it on your behalf then charge you a fee for doing so. last time it was about ยฃ5 charge from the post office for something which had ยฃ2 duty.
not sure what hmp can do about it at this stage. some places are customs friendly and mark items down or whatever but hmp didn't put a value on it (the customs slip just refers to the invoice inside which is about as much as they can do legally) so it is pot luck. customs randomly open a relatively small proportion of packages which come to the uk but if yours is one of the unlucky ones then they are going to see the value.
check whether customs have charged duty on the ยฃ16 postage though. don't think they are supposed to do that.
Looks like some of us have been unlucky then. Still...roll on tomorrow when i can pick it up. ;D

Dolk โข Girl With Teddy, by scoooooot1 on Sept 7, 2007 7:31:27 GMT 1, Got my Dolk GWT yesterday morning and both of the long egdes have been a little bit bashed, not so bad that it's worth sending back as a mount would cover it and they are barely noticable, but still means the print did not arrive in mint condition.
Got mine, took out the staples and had a look at the print in the tube and there is a crease on one of the corners. Although I can't be bothered to send back (since I'm in the US) it's a bit annoying. I find it hard to believe that it's anything to do with the packaging itself, more the way it was put in the tube in the first place.

Ditto. Hope it hasn't been damaged. Seems a lot of them have had a knock.

Has anyone else noticed now that pow are taping the end caps and sticking an extra sheet with the print to fill the end voids?

Dolk โข Girl With Teddy, by jonpud on Sept 11, 2007 17:41:32 GMT 1, Mine arrived Friday but been away this weekend so only picked up today, Post Office in Peterborough did not charge me the import and handling duties as I was not at home when it arrived??!! Clearly states on the tube that there is ยฃ26.55 to pay but postie didn't want my money!! What a nice guy!!
HMP taped the invoice amount for all to see in a plastic wallet on outside of tube!! Think this is the reason for EVERYONE getting hit with charges!
Print is gorgeous though, best Dolk by far, good value if selling on Ebay for ยฃ150!! Get while you can, def future classic!!

That's another lunch time spent in another post-related queue.
