[****] has told me it may be hung-up in UPS Customs. I am very displeased!!! I was given a tracking number USPS tracking number: 9434636106194297949439. It has never moved from San Marcos CA.

"Thank you for your order
I will check, but, off the top of my head, I think it’s because of the way we are sending these notebooks at this moment.
It could be a problem and I could be wrong, but I will stay on top of this

Mail to the USA, at this moment is extremely complex. Borderline impossible (we are in Spain)
We are lucky and have found a temporary solution, but it’s not ideal. We do not know when shipping will go back to normal, hopefully soon, but every shop in Europe is in the same situation.
The reason is the new tariffs introduced by the US government by Aug 29th, with no clear rules and procedures

All shipments to the USA are sent with a combination of UPS and USPS. This way we are able to bypass the problem, but the USPS tracking takes a while to activate
Some friends in San Marcos are helping us

You will not be required to pay any import rules
I will check the UPS box, but probably it has not yet cleared US Customs.”
I WISH THIS PROBLEM TO BE RESOLVED!

I just received my order of 2 more of the Tomoe river 52 gsm Notebook. This will make a total of 5 notebooks. I am a fountain pen user and I really enjoy the way the ink meets the paper. There is some ghosting, but the paper is so thin, that‘s to be expected.

If you are a fountain pen user, I would highly recommend giving it a try!
