Changes 15th January 2025 (Please Read!):

Hi! We changed the distro-model back to it's initial state. The "Wholesale for Everyone" idea wasn't working out as i wished and the minimum order just too high for many folks. Now we have regular retail prices again and no minimum order.

 

All you regular WHOLESALE CUSTOMERS please email me before you order as i need to change your account back to Wholesale.

 

This webshop-system is very old. I tried to update the payment function but failed. I need to get this done asap. For now, you send me the order and i get back to you via email So make sure my email reaches you and not your spam filters. Thanks!

INSURANCE & CUSTOMS for NonEU (World) orders

If you don't want us to send an official invoice and custom declaration, we must charge 19% VAT on top of the given price.  -Low value custom declarations are no longer a safe option. Especially if the price of vinyl is under 7.00 or 8.00 EUR per copy it will no longer work or cause problems because we had many shipments returned because the customs believed the custom declaration was faulty... - believe it or not, they know about the hype and vinyl comeback as well these days.

We have a custom EORI number that automatically is attached to our shipments leaving the EU and we need to report the export. - As a EU citizen you would have to pay the VAT Tax of your country. NonEU countries do not pay the VAT but might be charged with a import fee.

FOREIGN ACCOUNTS

Payment should be made in ¤ (Euro) funds drawn on German bank. Any charges for foreign checks will be billed back to you. Shipments are sent by international registered PREMIUM, airmail, unless specified otherwise.
