Stayed up till 10 here in Korea to get in on this one. Way past my bedtime. Hopefully it'll ship as fast as my Ultralight V did...that one only took two weeks to get here.

CardamomteaYeah, I actually think I'll have it shipped to my parent's house in the US to avoid the possibility of having to pay import duties if it's shipped here.

BrianCeeNo need to ship to your parents' house. As long as the total item cost PLUS SHIPPING is under USD 400, you should not be charged import duties into Korea on hiking gear. That's been my experience for quite a few years here, and I've purchased various HMG packs and tarp, LG Khufu tarp and various assorted gear, various purchases on BPL, some Zpacks gear, and yes, a high-end Revelation from EE, etc. Trust me on this, subject to the SK government not changing their policy. If total cost of package plus shipping exceeds US$400, expect to pay (from memory) 10% import duty.

rmeurantThanks. But there's a 50/50 chance we will live in the US by the time this drop ships anyway, so I don't really need it to ship here. The air pollution has just gotten too bad for the kids, so we're moving to the US sometime over the next year.
