The Apparelyzed Delivery Charges

The Apparelyzed website is British, however, the company who handles all the commerce and merchandising is based in the U.S. Cafepress is the only company we know of so far who offers such a comprehensive service of one off printed apparel, and if they ever open a UK or E.U. division, you can be assured we will be first in the que to sign up.

If we were to get the apparel printed ourselves, it would cost us thousands of pounds to get all the different styles, designs and sizes stocked, and as this is a niche market, it would be a non-starter and our designs would not see the light of day.

Import Duties / Administration / Customs Duties

As a result of Cafepress being based in the U.S. we thought we should bring your attention to delivery charges and Custom's duties outside the U.S.

If you are in the UK, please read the following two links, as they contain important information which may add additional costs to your order due to import duty and customs charges.

Customs Charging and Import Value Thresholds

Parcelforce Worldwide Clearance Fee Structure

Customs

You may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once the package reaches your country. Additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be.

Customs policies vary widely from country to country; you should contact your local customs office for further information. Additionally, when ordering from CafePress.com, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the country in which you are receiving the goods.

Customs forms for all international packages list the value of your order's contents by product type. For instance, orders containing T-shirts, mugs, and mousepads will be listed in a way similar to the following example:

T-shirt value: $18.99
Mug value: $ 15.99
Mousepad value: $10.99

What this mean's in practice, is that a charge equal to the rate of VAT, plus a possible brokerage fee, may be levied in your county and may be payable on delivery of your goods.

Of course, if you are in the U.S, this will not apply.
