    It’s weird - seems like a pretty big viewerbase to (basically) ignore. I guess it does make collabs more challenging when there’s 3 timezone groups to deal with, but that seems like a weak reason to leave so much on the table so there’s gotta be something else there right?

      What’s even more is that it’s a pretty wealthy viewerbase to ignore, west/central Europe has (well in recent times not as much) plenty of disposable income that Cover doesn’t take full advantage of. Even with very simple things like shipping, I have plenty of hobby money but when the shipping costs are as much as the stuff I’m buying it does make me rethink the purchase.

        Yeah, I never bought anything directly from Cover because of the shipping. When stuff like Pop-Up Figures or Weiß Schwarz packs come out I have no issue pulling out my wallet, but buying something where more than half the cost is shipping… is kind of a turnoff.
