You may have heard the news of rising international shipping costs, and unfortunately, it is true and more expensive than anyone could have imagined just a few months ago. We appreciate you for backing our game through Kickstarter, and thus we are subsidizing shipping costs for each region.
After the campaign ends, shipping will be collected via the Pledge Manager system described in the previous section. This will allow you to easily provide your shipping address, upgrade your pledge level, choose add-ons, calculate shipping, and confirm your rewards.
We will provide "Customs Friendly" shipping to the USA, Canada, the UK, the EU, Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. Here are the hubs that we currently plan to use for fulfillment:
- USA & Canada - Quartermaster Logistics (QML)
- United Kingdom - Firestorm Cards
- European Union - Hydra Distribution
- Australia & New Zealand - VFI Asia
- Southeast Asia - VFI Asia
We have worked with these company several times in the past, and we believe they will do a great job of delivering our games to you.
The price chart below is the subsidized shipping cost estimates based on our fulfillment partner's projection for 2022. Prices are given in US Dollars (USD). Actual shipping costs may increase due to factors out of our control, but we shall do our best to communicate any price changes beforehand. Please click the chart to view the expanded price chart for multiple copies of Jiangnan.
We also provide free shipping for all backers in Taiwan, but only the English edition will be provided in this campaign. For the Chinese edition of Jiangnan, please wait for the separate campaign in early 2022.
Unfortunately, we are unable to ship to Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, or Syria.
Europe Zone List
- EU Zone 1 — Belgium, Germany, Luxemburg, Netherlands.
- EU Zone 2 — Austria, Croatia, Czech, Denmark, Estonia, France, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain.
- EU Zone 3 — Bulgaria, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Romania, Sweden.
- Rest of Europe — Cyprus, Iceland, Norway, Russia, Switzerland, Turkey.
- Note for Russia — We can only send to a Business Address.
VFI Asia's Customs Friendly Zones
- VFI Zone 0 — China, Hong Kong, Macau.
- VFI Zone 1 — Australia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, South Africa, Thailand, Vietnam.
- VFI Zone 2 — Bahrain, Indonesia, Israel, Kuwait, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates.
- VFI Zone 3 — Brazil, Mexico
- Note for Brazil — We know VFI tends to be really slow with delivery to Brazil, but other methods are 3x more expensive and you'll be subject to import customs.
"Customs Friendly" is not actually VAT Free.
What this means is that we will take care of all VAT, import tariffs, customs duty fees in the listed regions, and pay them before delivery to you. The technical term used for this is Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) shipping. The "Hub Fulfillment" model commonly used for board game crowdfunding is considered to be a very advanced solution for DDP shipping by most freight companies.
In 2021 the EU and the UK introduced new regulations for VAT collection. Under these new tax laws, we may have to calculate and collect VAT via the pledge manager, then pay to the respective governments before delivery.
Due to the current global pandemic, we cannot promise your rewards will be sent from the specific fulfillment hub listed above. We have a list of alternative hubs that we can switch to depending on what is the best solution at the time of fulfillment.
We promise that we will commit our fullest effort to ensure the delivery will be as "Customs Friendly" as we can reasonably arrange.
If you are a retailer in Southeast Asia, please contact VFI Asia for details.
If you are based elsewhere, please make a $1 pledge and send an email to us for pricing. This is the only guaranteed way to get this edition of Jiangnan for your store. There are no American or European distributors that normally carry our games as of this writing.
We will do our best to prioritize all shipments to FLGS stores and ensure they will be sent out along with other shipments.
- January ~ February: Commission of additional artwork & add more details to everything.
- March ~ April: Complete additional graphic design and finalize the rules for stretch goals.
- May: Submit finalized art files to the manufacturer.
- June ~ July: Production of the game. Lock PM additional items.
- August ~ September: Start freight shipping to Fulfillment Hubs. Lock PM system address.
- October: Hubs starts shipping to backers & retailers.
- November: Most people should have received the games before the end of this month.
NOTE: If there are any delays it could push this back further for completing fulfillment. Additionally, some stretch goals may need more time to create new artwork & playtest extra content.
