Preso da sacro furore e dalla speranza di giocare ancora a tanti giochi da tavolo, ho aderito anche a questo KS...

Giusto perché fanno ancora parte dell'Unione europea per qualche ora... Da lunedì, boicottaggio allo stato puro... :lol:

E, in effetti, il fatto che nel frattempo questi barboni di britannici siano usciti dall'Unione (per non parlare della crisi COVID) ha determinato un discreto ritardo nelle consegne.
Finalmente ho ricevuto il tracking number e, quindi, dovremmo quasi essere arrivati in fondo anche a questo... pant, pant...
Peraltro, noi sul continente siamo stati "serviti" ben dopo gli altri... maledetti...

Ultimo capitolo della saga... non finisce bene...

Il 2 luglio annunciavano quanto segue:
At the beginning of every week, we pay for several hundred labels which are then stuck on boxes bound for Europe and those boxes are collected daily by DPD. These labels are only valid for 2 weeks and so need to be scanned when they are collected by DPD from our warehouse. If they are collected from us the week they are printed then this is not a problem. What seems to have happened with a number of these boxes (811 at last count) is that they were not scanned by DPD when they were collected but instead, simply moved to their central hub, where they were sat on.

Once someone noticed that they were there, some warehouse worker would have scanned the label and seen that they were all out of date. Because of this 'being out of date', DPD have now stated that each box needs to have a new label stuck on it and that this has to be done at our warehouse as they cannot do this.
The Fix…

These parcels are being re delivered back to our warehouse and next week they will be relabelled so by the end of next week they will be collected and this time, every box will be scanned as they are loaded onto the DPD trucks.

We have paid DPD and they will deliver these items if it kills them. Moving couriers now will only delay even further despite that being what all of us at Spidermind want to do right now.
Aggiornamento del 18 luglio.
Since the last update, 2 weeks ago, we have worked tirelessly to try to find another way to get the remaining few hundred parcels into Europe. With 1st July passing, Europe have introduced a further level of cost and bureaucracy where we now need to hire an accountant from within a European country to file VAT returns (this is called IOSS). Whilst this is supposed to be voluntary, for most couriers they have said this part is compulsory.

In a nutshell, we cannot now guarantee that we can deliver these items in a timely fashion. Registration for this new system is expensive, untested and even some countries (such as Germany) are not implementing this yet. It is a chaotic mess.

With the anger seen here and on Facebook from backers frustrated with these delays (which we completely understand) we have reached the decision that for those waiting for their parcels from within Europe, we will begin the process of refunding them their entire pledge and Backer Kit amount in full.
E come chiosa, la colpa è dell'Europa...
Again, we are sorry Europe has become impregnable and whilst we are getting a solution sorted for the Ice Dice, we realise we have run out of time for those few remaining Level Up backers.

It is also sad that this experience has showed that for us as Kickstarter creators, delivering to Europe is no longer a possibility as things currently stand. Let’s hope something can get sorted by the politicians moving forward.
Anche per me questo è stato l'ultimo KS di una ditta del Regno Unito che finanzio. Cialtroni.

Grazie per la disponibilità; ma non mi hanno dato alcuna scelta. Rimborso e basta.
