QC gifts for volunteers

[simi11]

thank you so much, that helps me a lot! I see there are quite some things on sale till end of April or May 7th, hurry if you want to benefit even more savings

[deadliftdiva_548]

There were flash sales too going off in about 1 hour from now.

Mine will ship very slowly but it’s cool to get a free item.

On the other hand, I admit I was on the “send us that snack box for free” ship that we had around here a couple of months ago, that did look like fun. Had that been an option, OH YEAH I would have been delighted too. Here I am getting something I can use, and it’s going to be FREE - that coupon also covers the shipping and handling.

Thank you to the viki overlords for the coupon, and I hope things arrive in good order from the other side of the globe!

Well, I’ve now actually looked at the site and I ended up buying some really cute earrings and ear cuffs. And some gel cooling pads because omg you can’t get those in my country and I bet they’ll be amazing when suffering from one of my migraines. I went a little bit over the amount, but I’m sure they were counting on that from some of us.

I hope it’s decent quality. Never shopped there before.

Now, I will need to go and look, for the customs regulation about shipping from China and/or Hongkong, I don’t know, I think the “magical” limit was 22 EUR for not having to pay duty …

[simi11]

Oh god no, 22 EUR is really nothing, I’m puzzled…
I ordered a t-shirt, 2 wooden trivets, an eyebrow trimmer, and 3 toiletries travel bags, incl. for my mom and daughter and some collagen serum, I was supposed to get 10% off for first time customer but they have no interface to use 2 codes… I wrote them, we’ll see, every penny counts
Good luck to you all trying to shop, this website has sooo manyyyyy things

And @Viki.com Thank you for this FUN experience to shop, I was able to have a peak into Asian cosmetics and fashion, lol, some things looked just like in the KDramas, lol

[irmar]

Is every QC getting something? I never did.

[mirna023_316]

Coupon just showed up (went to my spam folder for some reason). Hmm…now to find something to buy.

[somejuwels]

Same here. I’m still waiting, hopefully…

[glykeria]

I got 20$. There are really nice things and cheap enough to make a nice bundle. It’s a nice gesture and on top of a free Viki membership, it’s a very good amount, I’m not subbing to get rich anyway.

To anyone in Greece, I learned the hard way that the limit for customs is 30$ when shipping from non-EU countries, even a cent above and you’ll have to go through a long and expensive procedure. I don’t know if it applies to EU countries vs non-EU countries in general.

[lutra]

At least for Germany I can say the limit is 22 Euro, if you order from a non-EU country. And for your attention, if the tansportation fee is on the bill, it counts as well.
Between the amount of 22 - 150 Euro, (who ever thought of that amount, no words), the goods are duty free, however there is import sales tax 7 or 19% depending on the ware.

It’s said that they would neglect if it were under 5 Euros

(( I did not want to delete it since I wrote it earlier but LOL it’s so wrong, I wanted to calculate with a smaller amount … FORGET THIS CALCULATION Let’s say 30 US Dollars were equal to 30 Euros … since most goods are no low tax products 19% are 5,70 Euro that means by 70 cents over the granted limit.))

Buit the Dollar is a little higher at the moment than the Euro, so …

I have placed an order and I hope I won’t have to pay customs charges. I would have preferred an Amazon coupon.

[irmar]

Today 30 USD =27.59 euros
But if it is for everybody as for Glykeria, then it is 22 euros, within the limit.

[glykeria]

I only became a gold QC recently, you should have a 30$ gift.

Keep in mind that the limit I was told about is 30$, not 30 euros. Just in case anyone wants to add a little something over the coupon cost. Total order amount, including shipping.

[lutra]

@glykeria
Well I got a 30 USD coupon, but won’t use it up totally. Whenever I recived a package from Asia it was always opened/controlled. So I won’t have luck on my side, And I don’t want to trouble myself over some Euros, but I want the feeling of getting a gift and if I had to spend money I wouldn’t. That’s the only problem I have with it.

[irmar]

I checked again right now, and still haven’t got anything - except my e-bill from Cosmote.

[glykeria]

Maybe you should contact Viki? My sister is a gold QC and she received hers.

I received a “thank you, no thank you” for a job application, I’m not sure which is worse.

[glykeria]

I have problems with US packages sometimes, too. Only Amazon.us seems to run interrupted, but only when I use standard shipping (post office and not courier services). That’s why Amazon.uk is my go-to.

[cintya_carolina]

I also haven’t gotten anything

[marisol_inf]

I already got the YesStyle coupon but I have doubts since it’s my first time buying there. How many days exactly does the Shipment of purchase? Do I have to pay customs? But I’m from the countries mentioned, right?

[lutra]

@marisol_inf
I think there is no other way to find that out, than to search for the customs regulation of your country. Authorities have it only, some even have apps to offer.
