I think that's me, I ordered two sets but got only one. If you send with a tracking number, please write it down as a gift or something, cause I paid 241 SEK (almost US$ 26) in import fees for this batch https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/1389/e106b203-baec-4a62-8ff5-edc2439d9418/IMG_20190221_154944-.jpg Really happy with the ones I got though
Oh snap! what's your order number, I can send out the errant patches. Re: customs fees unfortunately I don't have a lot of leeway there. I send enough packages that various countries have created import/export profiles for me and track what I send, so if I send lots of stuff as gifts they will get suspicious. One tactic that has worked for other eurofolk is placing multiple smaller orders if you can figure out what the minimum value is that they start caring about. I wish I had a better answer on that front but it's kind of a sticky situation.
Order number is 10442 Regarding the fees, that's understandable. Afaik they stop everything that's tracked so maybe you could send without tracking? That's the reason I paid $5 for shipping, but I suppose I bought too much for it to fit reliably. Cheers though, I love your patches and your explanation was great 👍
Gotcha, I'll get those right out. There was a big change in international shipping at the beginning of the year - essentially you can't send items in stamped mail anymore, everything needs a customs form and thus a customs number which is what you got in your email. They've taken to using customs numbers as kind of pseudotracking so it will give you some location updates after it leaves the US.
Ah, okay. That sucks. Thanks for the info though.
Got a decent pile now, getting pretty proud of it!
I ordered a few things from hyperborean a good while ago and havent gotten anything. I even sent him a couple emails and a message on the contact page but I've gotten no response. Is he alright?
He was gone for a few months- something about his job takes him to remote parts of Alaska for three months at a time- but he started posting again a few weeks back. I'd try emailing him again.
Anyone know any particularly good bags for patches? I saw some tactical ones on amazon I was tempted to get.
Who recognizes this one? https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/238892/71bedf97-b1fe-4644-9305-abfb95383f19/1551137111592.png

yep
Or just buy a plate carrier with velcro on both the front and back, cover it in patches and have people look at you with deep concern.
i just stuck adhesive velcro to my osprey backpack where i could. i can fit 3 patches on it
Anyone know if there are any lego patches, if not there should be
Hyperborean has a few on offer.
I finally got a spot to display most of my patches and pins and junk https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/107265/67a71260-f10f-4ebe-a4fb-e5f3f87f8c6d/image.png
Why do you guys like patches so much?
It's like a more advanced form of post stamps collecting.
I like putting nerd shit on my backpack

I just think they're neat.
They're fun to collect. But also, because the nature of patches, it's easy to put them on and take them off things- so I can decorate some of my gear/wear with them to express myself and my interests. Like stickerslapping your laptop or skateboard- but with a nicer logo made out of fabric. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/527/a6847efc-d2ca-4852-8f95-9f2c667d91a8/VALK HYPE.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/527/936c6ff7-bdea-41aa-b44b-7e5ad65fde56/Driving with Monika 1.jpg
So I may have gone a little overboard in the past few weeks! https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/526/66a979d0-0e56-43b0-a3b9-0500271a4a43/IMG_20190301_165915.jpg Still waiting on the DDLC set from merlin's magical merrows to arrive, its been a month since they supposedly shipped...
No such thing, friend, but that is a very impressive haul over such a small period of time. That MGS1 snake patch is pretty ace, in particular. Usually Merlin's doesn't take that long if it's within North Amercia, I'd shoot him a quick email.
Out of curiosity where'd you get that LOST Dharma patch?
Unlimited patch works- 2hu Mini-Hakero Velcro Patch I got mine from the defects pile for super cheap. Honestly I don't know anything about touhou, I just bought it because it looked cool and was only 50 cents ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
