I know, very complicated... but an obvious solution.

Can the seller issue a credit for the amount already paid, then send an invoice
for a nominal amount? I realize this wouldn't get the full tax amount but
it would (in theory at least) allow the payment status to be paid, and the order
to be marked as shipped.

There definitely would not have been any light gray in a set from 2012, only
light bluish gray. And there are definitely color variations there - additionally,
there are some LBG elements that have a hint of translucency, I guess because
not enough dye was added to the plastic.

They're pretty similar. Both PayPal and Stripe used to be 2.9% + $0.30 per

like Stripe is still the same as before. But I would still recommend accepting

Stripe is the same as before BUT if you want seller protection akin to what PayPal

The key thing is that the IOSS number has to be sent electronically - it won't
suffice to put it on the package itself. Maybe someone who is more familiar with
how the Royal Mail operates can weigh in - in the US it means that you have to
buy the postage online, and not every vendor allows the IOSS number to be entered.
If you ship outside of the EU (e.g. USA, Canada, Norway) then you don't have
to worry about an IOSS number. BL will collect sales tax for the USA, and there
are no customs fees; but Canadian and Norwegian buyers will have to pay VAT/sales
tax and maybe customs fees as well.
