FAQ’s

 

Do you sell reproduction accessories? Is everything authentic?

4th Moon only sells authentic vintage items. No reproduction ever.

 

Do you buy vintage Star Wars items and/or collections?

YES! I'm always looking to purchase collections or individual items to add to the store. Whether you are in Canada, the US or anywhere else and want to sell your Star Wars stuff, I'd be happy to have a look and make an offer. I'll cover any shipping costs.

I'm especially interested in foreign items from Japan, Mexico, the UK and Europe. Please get in touch if you're from these areas and have access to vintage items.

 

I have a bunch of old Star Wars stuff, what's it worth?

I'd be happy to have a look and give you an honest appraisal - even if you're not looking to sell right now. Use the contact form and we'll go from there.

 

Do you sell modern Star Wars items?

Nope, only stuff from 1977 to 1986. We've just started carrying selected Hasbro Star Wars toys and figures!

 

Do you ship to the UK and European Union?

Yes, we're back to shipping to the UK and European Union. Prices are very reasonable and start at just $15 usd for small packages. Some large packages may be excluded from international delivery. Calculating international shipping can be hard, please be patient with us as we try to bring back UK/EU shipping without getting burned by miscalculations! We use PostNL for all international shipments. Shipping time estimates are provided by the carrier and sometimes it may take a little longer.

 

Do you ship to Australia and New Zealand?

Yes, we do! Shipping rates are very reasonable and usually take 10 - 20 business days. There are no import duty or taxes for Australians importing under $600.

 

I live in the UK, Europe, Australia or New Zealand. Can you mark it as gift or put a low value on it for customs?

I have to put the true value, including shipping, on each package. Our software doesn’t allow us to fudge this. 

 

What customs, duty or VAT charges can I expect for the UK and EU?

First off, it's the buyers responsibility to understand their local import duties and taxes, but we try and minimize these costs as much as possible for our customers. UK and EU shipments will charged VAT on delivery, this is the same as if you purchased it from a local store. Most vintage toys are sent with customs code 9705100090 and should not have additional duty charges. Supplies like cases are sent with customs code 9503002190 which should mean a 4% duty charge in the UK and no duty to the EU. Again, please check with your local jurisdiction. 

 

Are there any customs charges for shipments to Canada?

No, I ship directly from Toronto using Canada Post calculated shipping rates. You'll be given options from Canada Post based on the weight of the package.

 

If I'm in the US do I need to worry about customs then?

No, almost all US orders are shipped via USPS. I use a freight-forwarder that delivers packages directly to a USPS sorting facility in Niagara Falls, NY. This often means faster shipping than if it came from the US.

 

Do you sell on eBay?

Kinda, but not that much. Here's a link to my eBay page

If you see something on the eBay page and can't find it here, use the contact form to get in touch - I will sell it for less to you directly.
