•We now offer ➡🅔🅧🅟🅡🅔🅢🅢➡ courier services at special low rates exclusively for our customers that you may select from our shipping options at checkout. ✅

•We also offer a new shipping option available to you at checkout (this option available 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙮 in the 𝑼.𝑲., 𝑭𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆, 𝑮𝒆𝒓𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒚, 𝑭𝒊𝒏𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒅, 𝑺𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒛𝒆𝒓𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒅, 𝑮𝒓𝒆𝒆𝒄𝒆, 𝑰𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒚, 𝑨𝒖𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒂, 𝑪𝒉𝒊𝒍𝒆, 𝑴𝒆𝒙𝒊𝒄𝒐, 𝑩𝒓𝒂𝒛𝒊𝒍, 𝑨𝒓𝒈𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒂, 𝑬𝒄𝒖𝒂𝒅𝒐𝒓): if you are interested in keeping your shipping costs even lower, we now offer the option of sending your CDs without their plastic cases, and well packaged/protected. This makes the package about 50% lighter, allowing you to cut your shipping costs in half. If you purchase NEW cds, please, do not choose this economy 'WITHOUT JEWEL CASE' option (unless you don't mind the item being opened, and carefully packaged/shipped without it's case). 😏 Don't worry: only the ➡ Economy 'Without Jewel Case' ⬅ shipping option sends CDs without their cases, and only to the regions mentioned here. ✅ If you select any other shipping option at checkout, then of course your CDs will be sent 🅆🄸🅃🄷 🅃🄷🄴🄸🅁 🄲🄰🅂🄴🅂. ✅ And, as a courtesy to you: if we notice that you purchased NEW cds, but selected the economy 'without jewel case' option intended for used CDs to be shipped without cases, we will send you a quick message to double check with you before processing your order, to see if you'd like to upgrade to any of our standard or express services intended for items to be sent with their cases.

•ⒺⒸⓄⓃⓄⓂⓎ shipping services: Please pay close attention to the delivery estimates provided next to each shipping service shown to you at checkout. Some countries in Europe, and S. America, require as long as 8 weeks (or even longer at times) for delivery. If you have a tendency to be 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘵, please help us both avoid unnecessary friction ☮ and do not choose economy service at checkout. Thanks to special arrangements we have with some of the best delivery partners in the world, we offer ➡🅔🅧🅟🅡🅔🅢🅢➡ shipping options at prices far below that of most of our competitors. ✅

•🇺​​​​​.🇸​​​​​.🇦​​​​​., 🇫​​​​​🇷​​​​​🇦​​​​​🇳​​​​​🇨​​​​​🇪​​​​​, 🇬​​​​​🇪​​​​​🇷​​​​​🇲​​​​​🇦​​​​​🇳​​​​​🇾​​​​​, 🇧​​​​​🇷​​​​​🇦​​​​​🇸​​​​​🇮​​​​​🇱​​​​​, 🇨​​​​​🇭​​​​​🇮​​​​​🇱​​​​​🇪​​​​​, 🇬🇧, and a few others: direct services by Japan Post remain suspended, but we are still able to deliver to you. How? We offer several shipping options for our customers in regions where Japan Post remains unable to deliver. To those curious, the suspensions are related to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the ensuing closure of airspace over Russia to commercial (incl. postal) flights. Essentially, there are two options for these regions available to you at checkout: quick/direct courier/express services, or, a cost-effective economy option. If you choose the low-cost economy option, please be very mindful of the delivery time/estimates. Since economy service by Japan post is not available, we have arrangements with our partners for mail forwarding to ensure you can still take advantage of low-cost economy shipping options; as long as you are patient and understand that only courier services can deliver to you in a week or two. ⒺⒸⓄⓃⓄⓂⓎ service can and will often take as long as 6-8 weeks, even for the US, Germany, France, and most certainly, South America.

•🇻​​​​​🇦​​​​​🇹​​​​​ & 🇮​​​​​🇲​​​​​🇵​​​​​🇴​​​​​🇷​​​​​🇹​​​​​ 🇩​​​​​🇺​​​​​🇹​​​​​🇮​​​​​🇪​​​​​🇸​​​​​: An unpleasant topic for some, but one that must be addressed to avoid unpleasant surprises later. Any and all import duties/taxes are the sole responsibility of the person importing the goods (the buyer). Discogs terms of use, offer additional insight:

"The Supply of Goods VAT is the VAT a buyer must pay for purchasing an item (from [merchant]) online. Supply of Goods VAT is to be paid by the buyer as part of the total order cost."

"Discogs will charge, collect and remit VAT on orders with a total landed cost up to EUR 150 and GBP 135."

"VAT becomes the responsibility of the buyer when the total landed cost of an order exceeds the supply of goods VAT thresholds noted above. The buyer will need to pay any applicable VAT and customs fee at the moment of importation."

In simple terms, Discogs apply VAT/import taxes at checkout, when the total cost of your order is up to 150 Euros in value. If the amount is above this, VAT is not collected at checkout, but rather, when the package reaches your destination country.

There are very rare cases, of overly 'ambitious' customs officers attempting to impose VAT a second time, on orders where VAT was already paid. In principle, such requests may violate EU Customs Union regulations: VAT may only be imposed once on a given order, not twice. In full compliance with E.U. Customs Union regulations, we electronically submit the IOSS VAT number required by the Union, to ensure full compliance on our part and swift passage through customs. In spite of this, rare cases remain where (presumably negligent) customs officers will ignore this, and attempt to impose VAT again. In such cases, please present them with your Discogs invoice (also included in your package) that demonstrates VAT has already been collected. As per their requirement, IOSS VAT is always automatically submitted electronically offering no valid grounds for duplicate collection.

For your reference, IOSS/VAT/Tax ID numbers required in cases where VAT has been collected at time of purchase, can be found below - and vary, by your region:

Discogs Tax ID Numbers
Discogs OSS VAT ID: NL855284213B01
Discogs IOSS VAT ID: IM5280008075
Discogs UK VAT ID: GB375197855
Discogs ABN: 3000 1365 2135
Discogs NZBN: 131-929-986

These numbers CANNOT be used to circumvent paying VAT. Additionally, requests for any inaccurate declarations will be declined.

We do our very best to ship your orders fast. But, in the interest of genuine transparency: we're not always able to ship on the same or even following day. There are many reasons why we may sometimes take a few extra days to ship your package. Any delay in shipping an order, is always directly related to us ensuring we provide you with the best possible experience when you receive your package.

🇼​​​​​🇮​​​​​🇱​​​​​🇱​​​​​ 🇾​​​​​🇴​​​​​🇺​​​​​ 🇸​​​​​🇪​​​​​🇳​​​​​🇩​​​​​ 🇲​​​​​🇪​​​​​ 🇦​​​​​ 🇹​​​​​🇷​​​​​🇦​​​​​🇨​​​​​🇰​​​​​🇮​​​​​🇳​​​​​🇬​​​​​ 🇳​​​​​🇺​​​​​🇲​​​​​🇧​​​​​🇪​​​​​🇷​​​​​?
Of course (if, you paid for tracked service at checkout). At checkout, please be sure to select any of the tracked services we offer (denoted by "With Tracking" next to the shipping service). We provide tracking code updates several days after your package is shipped. There are several reasons for this, but mainly - to avoid an occasional flood of messages such as "This tracking code is not working! Where is my tracking?!". Tracking numbers often do not work until they've been scanned/entered into the system (this can sometimes take several days, depending on the service used). Additionally, as we are in a remote area, we have arrangements with courier companies where they pick up shipments every few days in bulk. Thus, even though your package may be processed (sealed, and placed in our outgoing mail shelf) it may not be picked up by the courier for a few days, following which it will be scanned, and tracking provided. Please, have faith in knowing we do our absolute best to ensure every order moves as swiftly as possible, and updating you with tracking - when it becomes available, is no exception.

There is simply no way that everything will always go as expected. We're human. Despite our best efforts, an isolated case of human error can never be entirely eliminated. We really do give it our best, on every order, to prove to you - the reader - that we remain worthy of the incredible feedback so many of you have been kind enough to leave us. If you have received a package - and you feel, something isn't up to your expectations, please - communicate with us first. Talk to us - we're here for you. We believe that diplomacy and respectful communication can resolve any issue that may arise here. Music collecting should be fun, never stressful. We do what we can to keep it that way. In the isolated case something is amiss, please, resist the temptation to shoot first, ask questions later (like, leaving poor feedback, sending hostile messages, etc). Please don't resort to aggression, or hostility - it seldom leads to a positive result. Reach out instead, talk to us, and we'll offer a remedy or two.
