I had to pay the same amount for shipping to Italy.
At this point I think we can assume that shipping will cost $35 for almost all EU countries

I can speak to the quality of @pslate's products, I got a VERY custom set of cables for my ghost and they are very well made and you can tell the time and dedication he puts into every set. It might take a bit of time to complete your order but his customer service is second to none (even for a pain in the ass like myself) and very much worth the wait.
Would quite happily pay the $5 more and be back in the club.
Well, NL is the next country to leave the EU I guess
This is correct. Pictures make it look shinier than it is. I feel the need to say that since a big reason I went with it was b/c I wanted a more industrial looking power button that didn't feel cheap/like garbage when it actuated. This one has a very nice tactile bump, and a satisfying friction from the precise machining. Josh will also customize your cable length as long as you send an email when you place your order.
Also worth noting... the light is BRIGHT. It's easily as bright as the new Corsair H60 pump LEDs.
It's marked as sold out because I'm not taking cable orders until March 2nd. But if you need one ASAP I can make and ship it. I have inventory on hand. Marking the cables as sold out is just the best way to stop new orders from coming in.
Thank you, @pslate for the quick response and details! I am not apart of the scheduled test shipping, so I am not in a rush at the present time for buttons (or cables) for that matter.
Oh yeah, I think you're right. The actual calculation is a bit more complex than it looks at first. But shipping isn't that high usually, might be about 5-6€ additional tax in the end.
I think 50€ sounds about right for countries with similar VAT like Germany with 19% and Austria with 20%.
We'll see, I had a properly marked package with a value of around 230€ going through customs recently without paying anything.
They really work in mysterious ways sometime.
$30 to Spain, BTW.
In Spain you get:
a) VAT on final price (product + shipping)
b) Fees for all the hard work involved in paying those fees on your behalf (that usually is like 30€).
So...If I get hit with customs I'm looking at 21% of $230 + around 30€ labout = ~70€.

I think in Portugal the VAT (23%) is applied over the shipping cost as well.
I ordered a keyboard + extra cable +shipping 235 dollars and ended up paying 70 euro in taxes.
This was 2 years ago, I don't know if anything changed
I think it's more the countries with atlantic ports like UK, NL and France get 30$ and the other ones who are bad at colonizing stuff are 35$
(but I think post service are still by air, so my theory is flawed^^)
PS: also I remade the order since the first one was not fulfill properly, sorry again for that @Wahaha360 (the good news is you can test if the cancellation function work properly^^)

I love the case, and plan on picking one up when they become available.
I've been curious what the purpose of the split front is. I looked through the pictures of the design process and watched Optimum's build video. What does the split front allow that a solid front makes difficult? It does't look like it's integral to the change in spine location which is the big feature of this case. And from what I could see of the Optimum video it has screw holes that don't really have a function, or at least Optimum didn't explore their potential uses. I think Wahaha360 will probably be too busy to answer this, but maybe the community knows.

Since we're now talking shipping logistics, here's my customs receipt for receiving the DAN-A4 case in Switzerland 3 years ago.
Everything that costs more than CHF65.- will be hit by duties.
It's pretty accurate to what Swiss customers will have to pay since the price will be almost exactly the same: 16.68% of the declared value + shipping.
