Well that's just cancelled my order.
WWE have really screwed over the British fans recently. No more Silvervision, a fantastic service, and now no more WWE Euroshop. 60 dollars shipping and 34.90 dollars tax has pretty much doubled the price of the order. Ridiculous.
Order Subtotal: $144.92 Order Discount: - $28.98 Shipping: Premier $64.16 Duty & Tax $34.90 ORDER TOTAL: $215.00

This is exactly why I am yet to own a WWE shirt despite there being a handful that I'd buy.

They closed Euroshop. What was available on Euroshop was generally rubbish anyway. I'm pessimistic about Freemantle, just because Silvervision were excellent. We'll see though.

And on top of that you'll be charged "import duty" by HM revenues and customs which you won't find out about until you get a letter asking you to go to your local sorting office and pay before you can recieve your item
Freemantle will work out alot better than Silvervision as they have many more distribution links and contracts already in place with things like netflix.

$64 ? Wow... they're robbing people. I've ordered stuff (non WWE) from America before and postage is no way near that much. Also, I hate how WWE make videos on their youtube channel "not available in your country". Yeah, way to support the WWE universe Vince, guess it only exists if you're American.

If nothing else, they're still going to offer free European delivery like Silvervision did. Silvervision were indeed fantastic, but I'm cautiously optimistic about Fremantle (if they still produce Tagged Classics, they're alright by me!).

That isn't their lowest price shipping option is it? I'm guessing not as it says premier but then lots of companies give bog standard products/services fancy names.

To be fair, I think that has something to do with copyrights or licensing, and is not a decision made by Vince. I know that here in Canada, we can't watch videos hosted from the major American networks, etc.

Not to infringe too much, but what kinda stuff were you buying? I put four shirts in earlier and it came to $30 for shipping.
I remember getting the Star of David Colt shirt from Colt's site and shipping was like $5. Four shirts from BSW was $70 cheaper than from WWE.
Credit to them, they've found a way to extort a specific market. But at the same time they're alienating that same market.
EDIT: Here's something interesting. The $1.99 WWE 12 strategy guide costs $22-27 to ship to the UK. Obviously, there's no reason to buy it, but still.

They were having a sale on a CM Punk cap a few days ago for about $5. I decided to pick it up, got to the shipping part and found only two options, $25 and $28.
In the end I did not buy one.

The only options that show for me are 'Premier' and 'Express'. Not to infringe too much, but what kinda stuff were you buying? I put four shirts in earlier and it came to $30 for shipping. It was for 3 or 4 shirts, dolph ziggler sweatpants, ziggler hoodie and some wristbands

$64?! And I thought Canada's $16 was a bit much.
