Readcomix Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Form submitted! (Expecting a houseful of in-laws and outlaws that day, so I'm probably relying on the form this year, but if I can haunt the joint, I of course will!)

But if you are in the UK or in Asia, and picked in the bottom half, then it could become an issue. But so far people have always come through, even if it's a gift card or pay pal card. grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This usually dissuades people from outside the US who do not want to pay tax; so I will offer an amazon/local store gift card when contacted. If worst comes to worst and you are at the bottom with no one left who wants to ship let us know and there are people who will step in to assist.

I was thinking about this earlier, Has anyone tried to facilitate the shipping through ebay? They make international shipping so easy. Maybe a low price bin or something?

stormflora Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 Not sure if it's to be expected already, but I think it would be a good idea to send every participant a reminder on the night before the live draw, since people can get busy and forget. @The Sledder On a side note, for the one who wins my Tom & Jerry lot, you might have to wait a little into January. My comic shipments from the U.S.A. are lagging behind a little due to the Christmas holiday rush and all. But rest assured, I will ship out my gift as promised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's too bad that the customs form does not have a gift option. The ones shipping from Canada do. That would help out because these are all indeed gifts.
