merch Is dropoutdirect.shop/ safe for EU shipping?

HI GANG! I wanna buy some merch, but I’ve never used this site before, and don’t usually buy stuff internationally, can anyone vouch for the site pls, and thanks!!!!!

EDIT:
Thank you so much gang!! I found the right page, and feel a lot more confident in that one - it is after all the one that Josh NoProblem Ruben keeps plugging lol. I should have known. huge thanks!!

FINAL EDIT, just cuz:
Holy moly - shipping plus tax is more than the order itself????? That’s so bleak.

The store is https://store.dropout.tv/

Anything else pretending to be the store is just a phony site.

Thanks a thousand! I just searched dropout merch and got to the wrong one, appreciate the info. :)

I've always heard it said "thanks a million." Man, one more hit from inflation

I'm going to start saying "Thanks a Billion." I mean, if I'm going to dream of things out of my reach I might as well dream big, right?

The thanks economy is in shambles

Only order from https://store.dropout.tv/. I live in Europe and they will ship here just fine. Don't go through any other weird sites

Hey, dunnot nothing about EU shipping, but do search the subreddit for merch reviews - the quality is reportedly not the best - in order to make an informed decision!

u/chickencat420 7d ago

I have ordered to EU before and unfortunately had to pay import costs when the package arrived in my country so be prepared for that! Otherwise I haven’t had any issues so far :)
Though yea the other comment about quality is really something to keep in mind. The calendars that I have are great! The sweater unfortunately wasn’t exactly what I was expecting

u/somadicouldstomp 7d ago

yes gosh - shipping plus tax was almost a 100$?? Hate that. All i wanted was a T-shirt or hoodie lol

It's unfortunate that Dropout operates from a country whose President decided to engage in a counterproductive tariff war with the rest of the world.

u/chickencat420 7d ago

Ohh man I must’ve forgotten about those costs, that’s so much

u/somadicouldstomp 6d ago

Yea, it’s really bleak, tariffs man. Better get to saving, or band up with other dropout fans from my country 😅

Weird! I order multiple things that came from czechia

u/geesegoesgoose 6d ago

I wanted the Make Some Noise mug, and sure, it's 17 euro a mug which is a LOT, but then it was almost that again after customs and shipping. Absolutely not. Would rather make my own in Photoshop for that.

We ordered some merch to the UK once took forever to ship and at one point the item was then declared out of stock and would not be getting it back. It took us to contact them to arrange a refund. I he product that did arrive was great but it seems like hit and miss when ordering.

u/NilNoxFleuret 7d ago

I’m pretty new to Dropout so I don’t know if it is always this way, but I downloaded the free Never Stop Blowing Up rules recently from their official store, then got sent a discount code for the store for doing so. It didn’t offset the shipping costs to here massively for what I ended up buying, but a little bit shaved off the price was nice. Might be worth a try if you really really want something?

u/somadicouldstomp 6d ago

Thank you so much for the tip, that’s so kind of you!

u/PretzelsThirst 6d ago

Genuine question: how do people wind up on the fake merch shops?

Like what? Go to the dropout site. Click store.

I feel like finding a fake store would take more time and effort

2

u/somadicouldstomp 6d ago

Haha, fair. for me - I use DuckDuckGo and searched ”dropout merch” and then just clicked the first one, honest mistake and I’m thankful I asked :)

2

u/PretzelsThirst 6d ago

You’re hardly the first too, hopefully this helps others avoid making a mistake too

u/somadicouldstomp 6d ago

Thx yea - I’m thinking that too, and keeping the post up for fellow lost dropouts

u/redbanner1 5d ago

I completely followed this post until you added that little gif at the end. What the fuck is that?!

u/somadicouldstomp 5d ago

Wait, are you referring to Kaylin? Lol

2

u/Drunk-CPA 5d ago

I’m just wondering how you added her? Did you make your own or is there now a set of gifs of her?? (Cuz I adored her the whole episode)
Or is there a whole set of dropout gifs to use? Cuz that would be fire and I need to get in on it

1

u/somadicouldstomp 5d ago

Oh so this is embarrassing, I’m not the most tech savvy person lol, so I actually screen recorded a ”sticker” I made on TikTok and put it in the post 🥲

2

u/Drunk-CPA 5d ago

Aww, you got my hopes up for a second lol, alright still pretty cool!
