GPSR Compliant Shipping resumes to EU/EEA and NI at Alternative Armies

On the 13th December of last year Alternative Armies ceased shipping and allowing orders to be placed from the European Union (EU), European Economic Area (EEA) and Northern Ireland (NI).  It has been a process and a curve but we are now fully General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) compliant! Our website now once more offers shipping to the whole world.  Europe is back for our miniatures!

If you have any questions on this please contact us on sales@alternative-armies.com with an email headed ‘GPSR Information’ and we will be happy to assist you.  See our Information and Shipping page on the website for our rates and types of postage across the world.  Standard Shipping, Smaller Order, Tracked and Courier door to door.  Note that any discounts on orders are applied BEFORE (at cart page) shipping is applied on shipping page.  We do our best on shipping but sadly like everything else it never gets cheaper.

In essence the sweeping GPSR legislation from the EU requires any company selling into the EU from outside of it to have a ‘responsible person’ within the EU along with product safely notices and a few other things.  Alternative Armies does all of this.  Every package we now send into the EU / EEA and NI has this information and compliance notices contained with it along with contact details for our responsible person inside the EU.  If you wish to read about GPSR which replaced the GPSD then see Compliance Gate website.

We welcome back our long term and new customers from Europe with open arms.  We have missed you and best wishes from Scotland.  See the New Releases pages for what has recently been happening.

Thank you for your Time.
