My secret to scoring the Jellycat Spring 2026 Amuseables while keeping my Dutch bank account happy

Why I am obsessed with the Jellycat Spring 2026 Amuseables

I have spent the last week staring at the new Amuseable Daffodil and the Gardenia plushies. The 2026 Spring collection is perhaps the most aesthetic release I have seen in years. In the Netherlands, I noticed that our local boutiques are either sold out or have not even received their shipments yet. Meanwhile, collectors in China are buying up everything they can find. I realized quickly that if I wanted to add these to my shelf, I had to look toward US retailers where stock is surprisingly plentiful.

I love the tactile feel of the new Gardenia, but the price tag at some European boutiques felt a bit steep. I decided to see if I could find a better deal across the Atlantic. We all know that US stores often have deeper discounts and better inventory for these niche collectibles.

The math of my smart shopping strategy

I did some quick calculations to see if buying from the US actually makes sense for my wallet. A typical 2026 Amuseable might retail for about €45-€50 here in the Netherlands. In the US, I found the same item for around $30. Even with the current exchange rate, that is a massive head start. I always use a shipping calculator to see if the total cost, including the journey across the ocean, stays below the local retail price. Usually, if I buy two or three plushies at once, I save a significant amount of money compared to buying them individually at home.

How I use a freight forwarder to skip the wait

I don't let the fact that some US stores don't ship to Amsterdam stop me. I use comGateway to get a tax-free us address. This allows me to shop us store sites like Nordstrom or the official Jellycat US site as if I lived in Oregon. Once my package arrives at my US address, I get a notification to ship it home.

If you are new to this, I recommend looking at the how it works section on their site. It is a straightforward step-by-step guide that I followed during my first haul. It really simplifies the process of getting those US-exclusive drops delivered right to my front door.

Shipping Estimates for 2026 Amuseables

I know that shipping costs can be a worry, so I have put together some estimates based on my recent orders of the 2026 collection. These plushies are light, but they do require some space to avoid being squished.

My experience with Dutch customs and shipping rules

I have learned that when shipping to the Netherlands, I need to be mindful of the BTW (VAT). Since I am using an international shipping service, I usually have to pay the import tax when the package enters the country. Even with the 21% BTW, the lower base price in the US often makes it a better deal for me, especially for rare items like the Gardenia that are being flipped for double the price on local secondhand sites.

I always check the latest shipping rules before I order. While plushies are generally safe, it is good practice to ensure no other items in your cart are considered restricted goods. Using a reliable international shipping provider makes the customs process much smoother for me, as they handle the documentation that PostNL or DHL requires once the box hits Dutch soil.
