US Retailers vs Netherlands Local Stores

Many collectors in the Netherlands assume that waiting for a local restock is the only way to get these figures. However, the reality is that US specialty stores frequently have stock when European retailers are sold out. While local Dutch shops might have long waiting lists or inflated resale prices, US retailers maintain a steadier supply of the Looking Back Series. Using a freight forwarder like comGateway to access this US stock is often faster than waiting for a domestic shipment that may never arrive.

The Process of Buying From US Stores

To start, you need a tax-free US address to avoid paying US sales tax at the checkout. You can get one by signing up for a comGateway account. Once you have your address, you can shop US store sites that carry the Looking Back Series, such as the official Sonny Angel USA site or major hobby retailers. This step-by-step guide on how it works makes the international shopping process straightforward for Dutch residents.

Overcoming Payment Blocks With BuyForMe

A common hurdle for international shoppers is that many US retailers block orders made with non-US credit cards or those using freight forwarding addresses. If you find that a store is declining your Dutch card, the BuyForMe service is the solution.

The BuyForMe service, also known as proxy shopping or assisted purchase, involves comGateway buying the item on your behalf using a US-based payment method. This is the safest way to guarantee your order for the Looking Back Series doesn't get cancelled by strict US retail systems. You can find more details about this in the BuyForMe service FAQ section.

Importing to the Netherlands

When your Sonny Angel HIPPERS arrive in the Netherlands, they will be subject to import tax and GST/VAT. As of 2026, the standard VAT rate in the Netherlands is 21%. Since the UK and other non-EU sources often have higher prices, importing from the US remains competitive even after paying these fees. For a better understanding of how these charges are calculated, check the guide on import duties. Always ensure you are not importing prohibited items, though plastic collectibles like Sonny Angels are generally safe for import.
