More BPAL!

Hey, [livejournal.com profile] moons_storm, the BPAL arrived today! I had a sniff at them all and instantly fell in love with 'Octopus and Abalone Diver'. That's not just my favourite shunga, it also smells very nicely as done by BPAL.

I'd totally buy a proper bottle. However, the BPAL site says that 'this vendor only ships within the US'.

What can I do?

You could pay a friend in the states purchase it for you then send it over to you?

A bit convoluted for a bottle of perfume maybe, but it's all I can think of.

Shipping internationally is pretty expensive from BPAL at the moment. Most international folks ask someone state-side to place the order for them, and then ship it first class mail overseas so the shipping is much cheaper.

Or, if you'd like, I could sell you what's left of my bottle from the decanting. It's about 2/3 full (I imped out three imps and the bottle comes with 7.5 imps -- and you have one of those imps which you could then pour back into the bottle if you want). Up to you. ^_^

New from the Lab would be $20 + shipping (until March 28th when the cost may jump with the price increase that goes into effect then). Second-hand from me would be (with shipping) $17.

*laughs* Yep, that's fine.

Yeah, I have bottles I bought three or four years ago that are, pretty much, still full. ^_^ It will last quite a long time.

You can order. You have to work out how much the entire order is plus packaging [the details are hidden away on the site] and then Pay Pal them the whole payment and use the special instructions bit of the Pay Pal email to place your order. At least that's how it was explained to me.
