[Update] SYH T-shirt group order
Just a quick update-
The problem that makes it hard to calculate is because it depends on whether it will end up in customs in Germany or not.
Since it is going to be shipped via EMS, I guess you can be pretty sure that it will get stuck in customs..
I have now received a reply from the customs office and they said we not only would have to pay 19% tax but an additional 12% tax of the price ON TOP. Which would make doing the group order not any cheaper than ordering directly from SYH. However, perhaps there is a solution to the problem. Please let me try work out something.
Your suggestions, oppinions and thoughts are always welcome, though. After all, we're doing this together. ^^

Here's a quick summary of how it's supposed to work:
►2100JPY for 1 T-shirt.
2100JPY x 27 = 56 700JPY
+ 200JPY International handling fee
+ 14 900 JPY EMS shipping to Germany for up to 9kg (27 shirts = 8950g)
= 71 800JPY
+ 71 800 x 19% = 13 642 JPY custom charges (19% of price)
=85 442 JPY / 27
=3 165 JPY for 1 T-shirt
~around 27EUR (paypal conversion)
+ shipping from me to you (depends on weight and location)
as opposed to
2100JPY for 1 T-shirt (455g)
+ 120JPY International handling fee
+ 1800JPY EMS shipping for up to 500g
= 4020Yen or ~34,27EUR (paypal conversion)
→Each person can order up to 2 shirts at the moment
→There will be a total of 2 invoices
►1 invoice for the T-shirt up to its arrival in Germany and
►1 invoice for domestic shipping which you shall receive after the shirts have arrived in Germany.
→You will receive a mail around May 16 with the first invoice. Payment has to be made through Paypal & needs to be in by May 20→Once all payments are in, I will place the order asap
→Shipping of the T-shirts from Japan is scheduled to be after June 10th 2011.
→Depending on whether customs had to be paid or not, I will adjust the second invoice for shipping and if needed, refund you.
►For 1 T-shirt, shipping within Germany is 1.45EUR; shipping outside of Germany to anywhere in the world is 3.45EUR.
→If 3 days before the deadline slots are still free, I will let you know & you may add shirts.
→Any questions/inquiries are welcome ♥
→Please let me know until Friday, May 13 via PM/E-mail, if you are certain, with following info -
