Most customers don't end up having to pay customs fees when ordering direct from Manta as they mark the value low on the Cn Label
So ebay prices are very expensive compared to ordering direct

Lowest price on ebay double lenti is £65.00 + £12.00 shipping = £77 in Euro = €88.45
Ordering direct from Manta price in Euros was €33.00 + Shipping €12.18 = €45.18

Lowest Ebay price is €43.27 more expensive than if you ordered direct as in nearly double the price

Guess I’m not most customers Most of the times I have to pay a customs fee.

For a sold out item €88 including shipping is not that extreme...but that’s me.
I don’t take chances...I order it right away. If it’s not to my liking I can always get rid of it.
And if I skip it in the first place and it turned out to be an awesome release, well, then I’m to blame myself. It will cost me extra.

Same here. I always pay customs fees and import taxes, no matter what the enclosed invoice says. I always need to provide the original receipt (usually PayPal transaction receipt) and an active online link, where they can check if the prices match. So gift options, low prices of items and all that are pretty much considered fake (no matter if the item is just labeled a gift or if it's, in fact, a proper gift from a friend).

So that means you'd have to pay customs on the eBay items aswell then (if seller is not from your country) making it even more expensive?

If the seller is not from Europe, yes.

Definitely. If the item was bought on Ebay (outside EU), customs officers ask for auction ID number and PayPal receipt.

If seller on ebay is from a EU country and buyer is from EU you won't have customs VAT to pay it don't matter if it's an import originally as it's based on what country the ebay seller/buyer is from

Some ebay sellers use Global Shipping Programme if the seller is based outside the EU you will be charged customs fee as in Vat

You will rarely get hit for vat from sellers based outside the EU even if they use standard shipping

Customs go after business sending parcels more than personal mail



I will never purchase from a ebay seller that list a item for sale that is more than 30% increase of retail price
Any ebay seller listing an item for sale at double the retail price is something I won't repeat here

These are the strange marks I have all over the box. Also have a ding/dent on the steel and a few small scratches

Mostly yes, but my shipment from apsmith21 got picked as well. Funny thing why actually. The customs guy didn’t believe a new dvd was valued at $3 each.
My next shipment from him is on its way. Let’s see this time

That 30% increase is a good rule to go by!

@Flloydo great pics and I see what you meant with the fluff

Surprised about the holofoil, looking pretty great on the FS text. Only 2 colors, not rainbow, right?

Cheers, hope it arrives safely

Thanks, lol yeah it’s a fluff magnet lol

It’s kinda different in the different places. Where the front title is pink th holofoil shows up kinda green and the purple and pink in other areas like the outside of their faces and the middle spot on the hand

Does look decent

 

[Jimbo74]

Steelbook looks really amazing!!!! Can’t wait for mine to arrive!

 

[nafosb]

The full slip/steelbook fronts with those heads so close together remind me of one of my top guilty-pleasure films, "The Thing With Two Heads" starring the great Ray Milland and the great Rosie Grier.

 

[cooey]

That box set does look superb!

 

[RickB84]

I want that full slip!
