I'm definitely surprised, considering Bitmap Books from the UK is a relatively small niche book publisher (to my knowledge), and even they implemented IOSS from the get-go.Yeah, FedEx charges 16 EUR over here, while the local postal service only charges 6 EUR under 150 and 13,50 for above.FedEx's 16€ fee is on goods above 50€ (it takes a certain % + smaller flat fee on below 50 IIRC), which is weird as that's well below the "We gotta check for import tariffs." amount. Not to mention, IOSS helps getting more Region B customers altogether. Especially as the Netherlands has a non-existing anime publishing market except for very few anime films getting published by publishers focusing on niche films in general (instead of specifically anime).I didn't know IOSS has the 150 EUR cap, most likely because of possible import tariffs that are applicable on a value above 150 EUR. Do you happen to know what happens to pre-emptively collected VAT then? Amazon still would collect VAT as if it's done through IOSS, but just adds an additional charge (which can be partially refunded if it was unnecessary) because of possible import tariffs. Didn't order from Amazon US above 150€ yet.
