Shipping to the US has become too burdensome since January 2026 and most shipments get returned as customs procedures often change after shipping out. As a small hobbyshop, it is not possible to cope with this. Orders to the US will be cancelled and refunded if you ordered since January 2025. If you do not automatically receive your refund, then contact us. Ordering from the US will consequently be deactivated. Dismiss
