I have tucked this post away here so that people who don't care about it won't be bothered by seeing it in the main forums. If you need to send money using PayPal in a foreign currency (say GBP) using a different currency (say EUR) it is very easy. You just need to do the following in your PayPal "Send Money" screen. The examples are in English from a UK PayPal screen. Of course the language may be different on your screen, and maybe it looks a little different too, but the idea is the same.: In Step1: (image below) Click on the "EUR" below the amount, you don't need to add an amount just yet. This opens a drop-down list where you can choose the currency you need to send  In Step2 (image below) In this example you are sending GBP; click on GBP and the screen changes to Step 3  In Step 3You should now see TWO sets of amounts and currencies: You Send (in your national language), in your currency Recipient gets (in your national language), in their currency  Now, type the amount the recipient should get in "their box", click somewhere else on the screen to "enter" that number, and you should see the amount you will be charged in "your box". Check the amounts are correct, especially what the recipient will get and in which currency, and send  Note: there may be fees or charges in your country that I cannot know about, sorry. This might be 1.99 and more, depending on what currencies you are using, and whcih country your PayPal account is in. You'll have to check.

Yes, I'd buy one for 10€ too. I paid (or traded) a lot more than that for the ones I have!

Makes you wonder if there's a shorter way of listing those nations on your EC sales list. Thankfully the abbreviations for some countries are the same if they share the same language or - serendipitously - the words start with the same letters! I blame the Germanic tribes myself: for some reason they have TWO valid words for the same tax: Mehrwertsteuer / Umsatzsteuer ("Added value tax" and "turnover tax", if my German serves me well). I couldn't even fit in the Irish "CBL" (Cáin Bhreisluacha) but oddly there seems to be very few Irish Gamers, so I passed. Of course, the Belgians have "BTW", "TVA" and "MWSt", but ss those are shared with other countries we can't blame them. Even if it is Tuesday.

FYI: The original title was exactly ÁFA;ALV;Moms;BTW;TVA;MWSt;DDV;DPH;DPH;IVA;km;USt.;PDV;PTU;VAT;PVM;PVN;CBL;ΦΠΑ;ДДС I didn't want to leave out anyone's national abbreviation and it was bang-up against the maximum character limit for the title field. Could it be a Cyrillic character in the very last position causing a problem? I won't rename it, just in case.I did rename it a bit: not back to the original, but to make it more generic and not all about me

Hello everyone
As you know, I am selling my entire collection of Carcassonnerie from the UK. This is a Public Service Announcement about shipments from outside the EU into the EU.
We all know this is a popular game worldwide. There are no problems selling and shipping inside the UK (obviously) and strangely it is easy to ship to the USA as they have no taxes or duties on import of these things.
Unfortunately, when I send things to you in the EU and if your Customs or Tax Authorities become interested in the envelope, then your Customs/Postal authorities may process it for payment of ÁFA; ALV; Moms; BTW; TVA; MWSt; DDV; DPH; DPH; IVA; km; USt.; PDV; PTU; VAT; PVM; PVN; CBL; ΦΠΑ; ДДС at the rate in your country (16% - 27%) and may charge a fee (perhaps €5 - €10, I cannot know).
Your country may have its own local rules and procedures even if they are all meant to be the same across the EU: I cannot know what they are, sorry.
Please bear this in mind when asking me to ship to your country: I am happy to do so, of course, but the Customs issues are your responsibility I'm afraid.
This is ironic since every one of the items will have come from Germany originally, and will have had German VAT (MWSt) paid on them, but even if they are sent back to Germany, the EU authorities insist that VAT/MWSt is paid again now we are not part of the EU.
That is the end of the Public Service Announcement.

I am working my way through my "Basically Wooden" Carcassonne storage box and found that:
- I have a "spare" copy of "The Plague"/Die Pest" in shrink, with German rules page from Spielbox magazine.
- I have two copies of "Cult, Siege & Creativity", both in tuckbox. One "like new", one a little scuffed. I will keep one of them with my collection for the time being, one can be sold.
I invite offers around £50. Please make your offers here, below, on the forum. Please do NOT PM me with offers, please make your offers here.
You may make offers in Euros if you like, remembering that €1 ≅ £1.2, so to offer, say, £50 you have to offer €60. Payment must be in £.

You are right, Willem. In any event, I will give buyers/prospective buyers the choice. It's a decision only they can make - I will just present the options Cheerio

Thanks for that. It's not the postage and insurance per se that's the issue (it's quite reasonable by RM for the odd tile or five), it's the unwelcome attention of Customs and the imposition of local VAT and perhaps (but I doubt it since these items are of EU origin) duty. Adding 19% - 23% to already high prices for certain rarities would certainly add insult to considerable injury. Doubly-so since VAT had already been paid, probably to Cundco in Germany! I'll wait and see who wants what and if they would be prepared to wait then I imagine they'd be grateful, I certainly would be Cheerio, thanks again Lewis

Are there any recommendations for shipping small, valuable items from the UK to the EU (or different EU countries if practices vary) for hassle-free transit?
Should I just pop it in cardboard CD-mailer (remember those?) and send it as a letter on a priority service with adequate insurance? Is it sophistry to argue that the value of a Carcassonne tile is £1 (as that is what they can be bought for from Cundco) not the price someone paid because the really wanted that particular tile?
What do folks do?
"Asking for a friend".
Thanks

They flattened-out really well. HiG made a good choice of material for them.

Please PM me with serious offers.
I have been asked to ask for offers to be made here, on the forum. I am very happy to oblige. Please do NOT PM me with offers, please make your offers here.
You may make offers in Euros if you like, remembering that €1 ≅ £1.2, so to offer, say, £50 you have to offer €60. Payment must be in £.
All are new and unplayed, they have flattened out really nicely: obviously Cundco thought about this when choosing the material.

Map Chips
I'd like to sell them as a bundle, but I will sell them one by one.
Edit:
Prices
£12 per map (up to 6 maps).
All 7 Maps: £77 and the chips are free.
Shipping (UK only) :
One or two maps probably £4.95
All seven maps might be as low as £4.95, probably £6.35
It probably doesn't make sense to send these back to the EU as you'd have to pay VAT/TVA/UVT on them. It probably doesn't make sense to buy them in the UK from Cundco as they charge German VAT and you'd have to pay UK VAT (and a fee) on import.

Might I suggest it should be ticked by default?
