'FEARLESS (Taylor's Version)' Merchandise

Hmmm that's weird...have you tried again? 

Apparently 'Target' does not ship to forwarding addresses. :/ How do they think international people are going to buy things from them if they only ship to the U.S.? They don't even ship to Canada anymore. It's their loss I guess. But I heard from my mom today that my dad decided to keep the U.S. post office box address that we have for this year. He was going to get rid of it. I used our address for there and successfully pre-ordered these CDs. It would fit in the box hopefully.

I was kind of hoping the merch would be a bit more intricate design wise. I could probably make all of these with my cricut....

Yea I hate that. I hate how everything is catered to the damn iphones. 

Thankfully, I did. But there was one package of the 'Capital One' blanket (I bought two) that didn't make it in time before my dad went to get stuff at the end of January. And I think they ended up delivering it by the wrong method too so it was refused or they sent it back because I emailed the post office to do that. My dad said he wasn't going to have the box address any longer but apparently he did decide to pay for it for the year. But I'm not supposed to send anything there though. :/ lol There was also two of the 'Folklore' cassettes that did not make it before my dad went to get stuff and I thought it'd be sent back because we wouldn't have the box, but I checked it and it said it was delivered. That's when I told my mom because I thought we didn't have the box and she said he decided to keep the box. I had ordered two more of the cassettes with the Valentine's Day jewelry (sent to me here in Canada) so I guess I'll have four now...I thought the first two were going to be refunded after being sent back. So other than that, the only outstanding order to be shipped within the U.S. that I'm waiting for is the blanket...I sent an email to customer service four days ago and I've gotten no response yet. I thought I was going to have to have the blanket sent to a forwarding reshipping address and waste money on that, so this is somewhat of a relief that we still have the box address.

I'm still annoyed also about one order from November. They sent it by the WRONG method to our post office address twice (and was refused and returned) and then they told me they couldn't send it out again so they refunded it. They had sent another order three times, so I really don't understand why it couldn't be sent once more. They sent it twice by the wrong method, which wasn't my fault because they already knew about my orders and have been good and sent other orders by 'DHL' or methods through other carriers that end with USPS delivery. I told them how much money I spend on their online store, but they were apparently "unable" to reship it. And it included the White 'Folklore' Beanie, 'Folklore' Hair Scrunchies, 'Folklore' Album Wrapping Set, "Our Love Will Be Passed On" Socks, AND the 'Folklore' Album Pin Set (free gift for orders $100+). So here's to hoping I can eventually get those things for their face value. I will NOT pay ridiculous reseller prices. This is why I'm quite annoyed about it being refunded - they are not on the online store anymore obviously and the only ones online are 2x or more the original price.

I feel like venting (you don't need to read this), but I'm STILL waiting for my 'Christmas Tree Farm' snow globes, 'Christmas Tree Farm' vinyl records, and 'Christmas Tree Farm' ornament (all in one order). I'm so beyond sick of the online store's mistakes and delays and lies about when things will be ready or shipped. Their choice to use 'APC' for international orders is an absolute mistake. My mom made this order (to be sent to me here in Canada) as a Christmas gift on November 26th. It wasn't shipped until JANUARY 7TH. And the tracking has had absolutely no change since it was shipped, which I noticed lately. That's one of the issues in my email that I'm waiting to be answered by them. I also told them that it's absolutely ridiculous that they couldn't have shipped Christmas items that were ready to be shipped before Christmas. They should be giving a free gift to people like me for this.

I was going to tag SydneyPaige because I wasn't sure if you saw that they had almost all of the 'FEARLESS (Taylor's Version)' merch on the Canadian Online Store. I figured out it's basically the same cost as if you ordered the same stuff from the U.S. Online Store (depending on what you order obviously). You either pay very high shipping and no taxes (and possibly customs fees, but I've thankfully been lucky with all of my Taylor orders) from the U.S. Online Store or you pay quite high shipping (for shipping within the same country) and significant taxes from the Canadian Online Store.

The only possible reason I could think of, is that in most countries outside the US, Android phones reign supreme, with way more brands and models to choose from, depending on your budget.  It won't be feasible to design official phone cases for each and every one of them (e.g. one set of cases for Samsung, another set each for Huawei, Oppo, OnePlus, Vivo, Realme, LG, Xiaomi and so on; our European friends are probably also familiar with most of these brands), and many phone owners would instead opt to go outside the official channels to buy phone cases with their preferred designs to save money.

As for the availability of Fearless (Taylor's Version) in other official online stores, I was redirected to the online store for Southeast Asia (which is based in Malaysia; I live in the Philippines), and they still only have evermore for pre-order (folklore is already available, though), and Fearless (Taylor's Version) pre-order and merch are still nowhere to be found yet.  Here's the link to see for yourselves:

I also wish that they also give the prices in other currencies around Southeast Asia besides Malaysian ringgit.  That will help us save from the additional foreign currency adjustment charges when we use our cards.
