DSF 4th july pins price help please

[laura_uk]

Hiay, can anyone tell me how much the Jessica and Pascal are going for? These will be for my collection, not to sell on. I've been on the bay and the prices differ. Plus I have to factor in shipping to the uk, that seems to differ from $5-$20

Thanks xoxo

i would say $45 to $50 for pascal and $25 for jessica but i would nt know how much for shipping over seas. and make sure to get pics of the pin and ask about quality because these pins had a lot of flaws!!!

 

[laura_uk]

What do you mean flaws? I'm new to pin collecting xoxo

 

[Lamorak]

Some examples would be:
Missing enamel - Uneven spread of the enamel, causing dips or chips missing where there should be fill.
Enamel overrun - Green running into white or covering outlines.
General flaws in the finish - A lot of the pins look to have fingerprints on them, like they were touched before the clearcoat was dry.

i can tell you what i paid today to ship to france and netherlands
1 pin shipping overseas (france, netherlands) $6.55
up to 3 pins goes to 9.45

goes up from there. Shipping to europe has gotten very expensive
a jumbo with 6 or 7 pins cost over 20.45 to netherlands this afternoon
total weight was 1 lb 7.80 oz

hope this helps

yes, ask about dips! my Jessica has a HUGE dip in her hair.

the whole set was prone to paint dips, and underfill. I had to change out several to get a decent set for someone.

shipping, for me, 1 pin to UK from USA runs just under $7.00 USD. 2-3 pins $8.50 ish and 4-6 pins closer to $10.00... postage international sucks.

 

[laura_uk]

Well the one I saw on ebay was 30 dollars with 20 for postage, I think I will pass on that. I'm hoping to pay around $35 inc postage

I have a set that will shortly on their way to me Laura. You'd be welcome to purchase the Jessica - Pascal is spoken for - if you'd like. Just let me know

 

[laura_uk]

Vicki I will pm you but bear with me as I'm on my phone eee I'm excited

 

[CastleDreams]

The $6 -$7 shipping is without tracking or insurance. That might me the difference.

 

[CastleDreams]

I obviously can't type tonight. That should have said that might be the difference between the prices.
