Mine has the same logo on the back top
Of course, after all it says backer-a-reno and not fronter-a-reno, duh!

Has your backer t-shirt the same color of the one shown in the photo?
Yep, that was truly Vaudville Hook worthy!
Yes, the colour of the one on the left, the darker one.

Hi ! I would like to incur the risk to buy some t-shirt on Fangamer without tracking to avoid the duties. So, is āIPAā a good method for shipping or not ? I also live in France
Thanks !
You donāt have to pay import duties if you stay below 150 EUR. Also their specified values may be even lower than the actual retail price. You may still have to pay VAT though which would be 20% in France.
I never had problems with IPA or DHL eCommerce Plus using Fangamer shop (Kickstarter rewards is a different story thoughā¦).
For Black Friday, Fangamer is offering discounted international shipping costs and free shipping on USA orders. You also get bonus store credits if your order is at least $50.
Iāve taken advantage of this opportunity to finally order the items that interest me more. The shipping costs (IPA) to Italy were discounted from $40 to $27.11
I also got $20 in store credits, that I will use next year to buy other stuff (including the ThimbleCon t-shirt).

But, butā¦ I already have all of that! One thing Iād like is this T-Shirt, but it doesnāt seem like it will be restocked:
I bought a T-shirt and recently the box+artbook, via IPA/DHL eCommerce and they got delivered (to Belgium) very nicely (I wasnāt home when the mailman came, so they left a message for me to pick it up at the postal office). On-line tracking was perfect, I only had to sign for collecting the package (which is a good thing, as it is a secured delivery). And best thing: no import duties or VAT to pay, since the values of the goods that they declared are low (not zero, but below the EU limits; probably the actual costs of the goods) which is around 25% of what you paid them. In short: any order from fangamer below $100 should be no hassle with IPA.
My own experience was very pleasant as well. I believe I had the same shipping option ($15 to Switzerland). Took about ten days to arrive, with great online tracking and actual delivery by the domestic postal service, which IMO causes the least amount of hassle if youāre not home. Though the TWP box was small enough to fit into the letterbox, so I didnāt even have to go to the post office to pick it up.
How big is your letterbox?
Too lazy now to go downstairs and take a picture, and I havenāt found the exact same model online (if the boxes are as old as the building, theyāre likely out of style since at least 30 years). But it basically has two compartments, one for regular mail with a small opening and a lock. And then there is a bigger compartment for bulky stuff. Similar to this:
