You do realise that number 2 is not their fault that is cause the British government thinks you should pay them tax on anything you import cause they want their money for their fat pockets it would be the same if you lived in the USA and imported from Mexico etc. Sometimes you can get away with out paying it but every so often they will catch you and slap you a customs and handling fee I used to get this every so often when ordering anime which you can't get in England from USA.
Yes us fans wouldn't mine a disbursement centre for bungie fans here in England but that means bungie would when you if to pay two countries taxes on running a company etc and hire people to run the centre and bungie is unlikely to do that cause they wouldn't see the profit in it so the amount of order they get. Also they would still if to pay import tax on getting their goods delivered to that centre. Loads of companies do completion online like namco bandai but if you read the terms and conditions they say we can only give prizes to people living in the us etc so even though you can enter from anywhere in the world only people in the us get prizes. That is unfortunately how the world works.

Yeah, I do realise number 2 is not Bungie's fault per se. However, I imagine delivery to [i]any[/i] European country (or Asia, or Australia etc) is likely to be subject to some kind of import tax. When you consider the global audience of Destiny, it feels like they are limiting their potential with the merchandise. As I said, I've not bought anything before, and I'm not likely to buy anything again due to these issues, and I don't expect I'm alone in this. Perhaps they could set up some kind of partnership agreement with suppliers/ manufacturers to create or ship the goods from here. Clothing for example, there must be plenty of companies in Europe who could produce the shirts, hoodies etc., and personalise them with quality logos to the required standard.
