Starbucks/Playmobil international friend request?!

[stacigiroux]

 

Hi friends! I am a career barista in the US and I’m OBSESSED with the Starbucks sets. The re-sell markups in the states are absolutely absurd. Is there anyone here who is Seoul based or in Korea in general who would be willing to pick up some sets for me and ship them to me at cost? I can pay using PayPal.  I know that’s a BIG ask! But I figured it’s always better to ask and hear “no” than not ask at all. 

I am so appreciative of the info and kindness I receive from this forum!

Thanks! Staci

I got the original sets which came out a few years ago through eBay, & they're still unopened in storage. I'm now starting to get the new sets, also from eBay; it's the only source I've found. I used to have many students from Korea, but I've lost contact with all of them.

The coffee truck is way too costly.

Oh I have plenty of connections to members in Korea through business associates.

They’ve been talking/negotiating a lot more of late and seem to be ready for more involvement with each other

I’ll ask if they could slip in a few boxes into the cargo

There will be a delay as it has to go through a few other destinations

It’s a bit complicated seeing as the highway is being remodeled and they are in the northern territory
