If your country is not listed in either of the lists above, please contact me via email before making a purchase: persephone@persephonelove.com.
Please know that I will not lie on or falsify customs forms.
My business records MUST match the amount of the sale. I don't like taxes either but I adhere to honesty and I obey all applicable laws to the best of my ability.
Packaging:
All of my sweatercoats that I ship out are generally sent inside a vacuum-sealed bag, where I have pulled out all the air. It squishes the coat (don't worry they fluff back out pretty quickly), and also makes the parcel lighter, as well as protects it in the event of spills in the carrier's facilities.
The boxes I typically send these in are 16" x 12" x 8". (30.48 cm x 30.48 cm x 20.32 cm in metric system.) Most of my sweatercoats once packed are going to weigh roughly ~4 - 6 pounds (~1.81- 2.72 kilograms). They ship from Colorado, USA, postal code 80905.
Depending on which country you live in, you may also see the option to see prices in your local currency. All of this is a recent and new change in 2023, so if you see anything that does not look right, please let me know. Thank you for being patient with me as I work to make it easier for people outside the USA to make a purchase. 🥰
