Anyone knows a FLGS that sends D&D miniatures to other countries? Details inside.

I honestly don´t know if it is the right forum, but here I go.

So, here is my problem:

I want to buy some D&d miniatures, but the cost to import it(Brazil) is simply outrageous. Despite the huge currency disparity(3:1 dollar), to buy something from oustide Brazil I would have to pay a 60% import tax over the final price ( and the final price includes the shipping costs), if I import from a company.

The only way to avoid it is if someone( a person, not a company) send to me the product, declaring it as a gift, and if the product total cost( including shipping) is under U$50.00, it would not be taxed(sp?), and I would be able to buy 60% more boosters!

So, I want to know if you, fellow enworlders, know any VERY FLGS that can sell D&D miniatures to me, and do the necessary procedure ( send as a gift, as a person)? And, most important, a FLGS that have a email address or, even better, a website?

You could also buy stuff on ebay (but choice would be limited however), thus importation taxes would probably not apply.

The problem is that I am beginning in the miniature buying, and I think buying single minis is not the best( or cheapest) way to start.

The person doing this could face federal prosecution. You'll have a tough time finding one. You could find an actual individual who might drive to their FLGS and do it for you though.

If the FLGS is a legal entity (such as a company), the store can sell the item(s) to one of its officers/employees acting in a private capacity (i.e. as an individual). The individual could then send the item(s) without fear of prosecution. The cost of shipping could be included in the price (e.g. as a special surcharge for employees).

the guy you email, alex.

If he wont do it, i'm willing to buy it, and ship it to you if you cover all the costs in advance.

(I take payment for my services with minis!) :-D

Don't know if they do everything you need or not, but here's my FLGS's website... I'm pretty certain they ship worldwide.
