MastodonNew #Mastodon merch just dropped! Responsibly sourced cotton t-shirts, enamel pins, mugs, and vinyl stickers with cute, exclusive designs! Get them while they're hot and support the development of Mastodon!
R.I.Pienaar@Mastodon Any chance for a EU based merchant? Using a merchant on a tiny island that chose to globally isolate itself and now having to charge everyone insane delivery fees and import taxes isnt great :(
Henry Henderson@ripienaar For real. I’d be more willing if we knew Mastodon got any of that €19 for EU shipping, but I assume the supplier just pockets the excess. There’s no way it costs that to mail a shirt pin to Sweden…
Eugen Rochko@henryhenderson @ripienaar No, we don't get the shipping money, the shipping company gets them. I couldn't get lower shipping rates. I understand the manufacturer being in the UK is not ideal for many and apologize for the inconvenience.
Eddie Coldrick 💻@Gargron @henryhenderson @ripienaar I appreciate your work... can't wait to get the merch! I also think that it would have been the same the other way around if you went with e.g. a US company, because then shipping to the EU/UK tends to be about £30, (and has been long before Brexit), so I think it's a good compromise :)
