Thank you so much for your reply. I just don't want my Sister to have to dish out any of her own money to pay for something I ordered. I live in an apartment, and I just don't trust having something delivered here, and having the delivery man just leave it outside the door. It amazes me that they do this, but, it happens all the time, and the risk is that someone else will just take your stuff. So, I am having it delivered to her house, just to be on the safe side.
Got a tip for us?

I highly doubt that I will be charged any customs fees. I have ordered things as far away as Hong Kong before, and I never had to pay anything. The value of my purchases were also within range of the value of the Vaja order total. I have to add, though, that I live in Florida, and the policies on the Vaja site are different for Florida.
Black & Red Edition is back in stock best hurry up if you are going to buy.Hmmm as I said customer service is poor as yesterday they said no idea if/when it would be back in stock.
Found I had the same problem ordering through safari (page got stuck on billing address again) so ordered using MS IE with no problem.
Can't believe I missed this. Nor can I believe that Vaja didn't e-mail me when these became available, since they were well aware that they screwed up my order. I don't know what to do to get one of these.
Macmedal, I really am happy for you, though.
Not to worry - I'm sure that you won't have to pay anything - especially if I didn't and I live in Canada! If the case is $80, the "value" won't be more than 50...
And yeah, it's annoying when they leave stuff outside...once I came home to a pair of shoes I ordered just sitting there outside!
I'd also like to add that the shipping was very accurate in terms of the 15 days that they quoted me on before buying.
You won't be charged customs fees but looks like you will be charged 6% Florida Sales Tax.
Have a look at the last paragraph of the terms and conditions shown below. Sorry!

I already ordered my case on July 8th. My order total with text personalization came to a little over $118. I had read the terms and conditions beforehand. Thank you, anyway, though.
I want to add that I am in Canada, and I did not have to pay any duties when I received the case..
And then 2 weeks later I got a letter from fedex demanding 13$ in fees. So watch out.

I've just received mine Black n' Red case! Shipping confirmation received 14th and delivery received 20th of August. Not any custom fees when shipped to Finland. It came in a white box with several ad cards for other Vaja products. The case itself was loose inside the box so no caseholder like in iPhone's package.
The case is more matte than glossy black leather and it fits very tightly with the Invisible Shield full body on, doesn't add much bulk. Actually I have hard time removing the phone from the case because IS is very grippy against the inner leather. Well I'm keeping the phone in the case most of the time anyway
The smell of new leather is good and the case feels like a high quality product. No defects shown on the case. The top clip feels snappy and pretty grippy because of the IS.
Pictures to follow when I'll leave work.

Awesome, thanks for posting your pictures! Makes me want to move time forward so I can get delivery of my iVolution SP that I ordered last July 28. I was secretly wishing that I knew about the Limited Edition so I can have a case much earlier, but that is fine. It will probably be worth the wait!
Shipping estimate on mine was 8/21 by 6pm, it arrived 8/20 1pm so earlier than expected.
