    The feedback I received via email is effectively "it is what it is" because of the new postal rates and the extra 500gms weight of the package. I was directed to the EU store as an alternative. However, shipping to Australia from the EU store is - wait for it - $300 AUD. I'm not holding my breath for a change in shipping rates to this part of the world.
    Yep. My choices shipping for NZ are USD$73 from 10C or USD$220 from EU! :(

    Actually third option is USD$17 to a reshipper which will charge me about USD$32 to send it on to NZ. Not sure it's worth the risk/hassle.

    Does anyone have experience if an address needed to be changed for shipping purposes? Theres a chance Ill be at a different location by time the Vault ships out. Would anyone suggest updating that address sooner rather than later?

    yeah, too expensive this time round.  It's getting harder to be an overseas fan these days.

    So nothing was fixed regarding the shipping? Paying members and fans of the band continue to be charged exorbitant shipping prices upfront at time of purchase?

    10club's EU store really needs to fix their shipping rate, cause damn!!! :o




    What purpose does it serve quoting a postage rate from the UK to Canada? Prices are determined by published weight rates and shipper has no discretion to challenge rates.
    To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

    Well, of course 10c could do something about the shipping rates. They could negotiate the rates with the current company. Or use a different company. Experience shows that charging 52 EUR for shipping a 4-LP-Box from the UK to Europe is too expensive. 

    @Santos L. Halper told us, that they would take another look at this mess if would be great to know, if they are still looking into this or if they are telling us to pay it or leave it alone.

    I heard that there is a big election in the US today, where they will decide about the shipping costs of the Euro store. 

    @Santos L. Halper please be so kind to tell us afterwards, if you are still looking into this or if this issue is settled as it is.

    Another option now that youshop is doing sea freight. Half the price but could take 2 months.

    Final call for the vault 10 according to the newsletter. I guess that means no update on shipping costs from Euro store, although @Santos L. Halper said they were looking into it. Disappointing.

    Presale does NOT end this week. Give us some time to figure some things out once our full CS team is back from trying to take a few days off. 
    We are still in the middle of a pandemic, please keep this in mind when we don't respond right away.
    Back to my stacked zoom meetings.
    slh 
    How's it going? 

    A month since the newsletter. And a month - 7 days since your response?

    More than "a few days off".

    I don't really want an answer to this anymore (unless it involves retrospective refunds! :D), finally pulled the trigger, didn't want to miss out!

    Wish we knew. Best to place an order now before it's too late.
