Ordering the NYC Jellycat Statue of Liberty from US stores for Hong Kong collectors

Why this plush is trending in 2026

The Jellycat Amuseable Statue of Liberty remains one of the most elusive items in the collector market. Originally released as a New York City flagship exclusive, its scarcity in the Asia-Pacific region has turned it into a high-priority "In Search Of" (ISO) item for Hong Kong collectors. Following the May 2026 restock at the NYC FAO Schwarz and Jellycat flagship locations, demand has spiked as fans scramble to secure the plush before it disappears again. Its unique design—featuring the iconic crown and torch in signature Jellycat softness—makes it a centerpiece for any collection.

Calculating the price gap: US retail vs HK resale

Buying this exclusive locally in Hong Kong often involves paying a 200% to 300% markup to resellers on platforms like Carousell. While the US retail price remains stable, the cost of acquiring it through a middleman in HK is prohibitively expensive. By choosing to shop US store sites directly, you bypass these inflated prices. Even when adding the cost of international shipping, the total expenditure is significantly lower than buying from local boutique resellers who have already factored in their own profit margins and shipping overheads.

Shipping estimates for the Amuseable Statue of Liberty

Before placing your order, it is essential to understand the logistics involved in moving a plush toy across the globe. You can use a shipping calculator to get a precise quote based on current 2026 rates.

Weight and dimensions

Volumetric weight warning

Plush toys are notorious for being light but requiring relatively large boxes to avoid crushing the fabric or shape. Most carriers calculate costs based on volumetric weight (length x width x height / divisor). If your retailer uses an oversized box for a single plush, you may be charged for a higher weight bracket. Using a parcel forwarding service that offers repacking can help reduce these dimensions and save you money.

Battery and hazmat check

The Amuseable Statue of Liberty is a standard plush and does not contain any electronic components or lithium batteries. It is not classified as a dangerous good, meaning it is eligible for all standard DHL international shipping and FedEx international shipping routes without additional hazmat fees.

Ordering from US stores to Hong Kong

Most US retailers, including FAO Schwarz or the official Jellycat US portal, do not offer direct shipping to Hong Kong, or they charge exorbitant flat rates. To get around this, you should use a **freight forwarder** like comGateway. This provides you with a **tax-free US address** in Oregon, allowing you to shop like a local and avoid US sales tax at the point of purchase. Once your Liberty plush arrives at the warehouse, you can manage the final leg of the journey to your doorstep.

Utilizing a freight forwarder for NYC exclusives

If the store does not accept non-US credit cards, you may need to use **proxy shopping** or "Buy For Me" services. This ensures that even the most restrictive US websites can be accessed. For a clear **step-by-step guide** on how to set up your account and start shopping, visit the how it works section. This method is the most reliable way to secure NYC-only releases without physically being in Times Square.

Managing import tax and customs in Hong Kong

One of the primary advantages of shipping to Hong Kong is the lack of a general **import tax** on most consumer goods. Hong Kong is a free port, which simplifies the process significantly compared to other regions. However, you must still ensure your customs declaration is accurate to avoid delays. If you have specific questions about prohibited items or documentation, the FAQ at the help center provides detailed answers for Hong Kong residents. Using a professional **package forwarding** service ensures that all necessary paperwork is handled correctly for a smooth transit through HK customs.
