Chaps - I contacted the shop today asking about my additional VF shirt that I ordered(I’m in the UK) and questioned shipping to Aus. They confirmed it is a Covid thing which is adding export charges and complications. Said things should revert back but can’t say when.
They have now added a statement on the website page on this to hopefully clear up their position. I’ve asked them to let me know when things revert back to being able to send overseas again so I can post here to update.
In the meantime they confirmed my shirt should land on my doorstep in the UK sometime next week - so the rest of the system is still working.
