Iron Heart at Brund, Copenhagen - 10th October 2024

I contacted Brund about finding a way to grab the hat, that's now on their website to the USA and was politely told no. Is this a shipping/tax/currency issue or "we don't want to" Not mad, curious.

@CosmoSix5 Might try asking them to see if there was a misunderstanding. Edit: Looking at their shipping information on their website, it says that they only ship to EU. Not seeing where it is on the website to USA...

@CosmoSix5 If you find a way around this let me know. I want one too. Maybe they would ship a few of them to make it worth their while and you could easily get your money back from the fellas on here looking in the USA.

[CosmoSix5]

@jordanscollected That's just it, no reason was given. If the amount was an issue I'd definitely buy a few and re sell them easily. The kroner to dollars was about $40. In a world where we pay $100 at the drop of a hat wouldn't be difficult

Someone in Europe can buy and send it to you

I’m not affiliated with Brund in any way, but my somewhat educated guess would be that even at a 150% markup they would have to sell quite a few hats in order to make it worthwhile.

They probably have a setup where their accounting system only handles EU payments. And they probably have some sort of package deal with their accountant (I’m not sure of the English term here - they have an auditor doing their yearly reporting) as well. Changing that would be costly - if the auditor charges them an extra hour, based on them doing outside EU sales, that alone would be 150-200 dollars.

But I’m just guessing

Maybe they just dont want the hassle. It's their shop, their business, they can do what they want. Deal with it and move on.

Got one! @Bailey @Graham Hit a few snags due to Brexshit but got there in the end..
Ordered from Brund, shipped to Belgium to my godmothers house, passed on to my godmothers friend, jumped on a plane with her to the south of England, posted again on up to Yorkshire.
Carbon footprint absolutely terrible but very happy I snagged one

@Mister_Brue oh absolutely.. the 7 quid cap that travelled the world trucker caps are my main weakness, I had to have this!

[Oaktavia]

A cap has made its way to West Virginia! Thank you Steffen!

[GardenState]

Cool cap looks a lot like my Cub Scouts hat from childhood.
