We are a little bit late this time, but I think it's no real problem as in the previous few years. Overseas shipping should normally not take much longer than 15 days.

If possible, the parcels should be sent out until the 10th of December.

There will be one exception, but both the sender and the recipient are aware of and okay with it.


The Christmas Tour Rules:

1. You should send your parcel early enough so that it has the chance to arrive before the 25th December.
2. Don't tell us in the official thread that you have already sent off your parcel (please do only notify Pepe through a private message or e-mail).
3. Do only tell us in the official thread that you have already received your parcel, but don't tell us before Christmas who is the sender of that parcel to keep things more surprising.
4. If possible, please do not open your parcel before the 25th December (local time).

5. Please provide clues (written or via cryptic pictures) as to what you received and allow a couple of days for others to guess before revealing your pedal.
6. Those who correctly guess a pedal will have the honour of being noted in the running log.
7. Pictures of unopened packages are awesome too, just remember to obscure (or photoshop out) any address details on the package.
8. This time it's a Christmas pedal exchange. I'm sure that all of us would love to receive a nice and enjoyable Christmas present. So please follow the Golden Rule of the one, whose birth we are going to celebrate in late December: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." It doesn't matter if the pedal that you send along is new or used as long as you think that the recipient will enjoy it.
9. International packages are to be sent via Airmail.
10. We will forgive Canada Post and European customs for being excruciatingly slow.
11. Most of all, have fun, this is not meant to be an entirely serious endeavour.


As always: Those who don't want me to keep their addresses for further reference, please tell me so and I will delete those messages after the tour has ended.

Luke Drifter, I received Mailer Deamon e-mails today. I was wondering why you haven't replied in the meantime. Please send me a PM with a working e-mail address.

Is overseas shipping going to be able to be shipped in less the 15 days?

During the pandemic time this was nearly impossible, but things are pretty much back to normal. It should work in most cases.
