First of all sorry for starting a thread, that only concerns some kickstarter backers, but I was curious on peoples thoughts. Kingmaker was not my first kickstarter support for a game from overseas (or replace this with "outside EU") ... but it was the first, where the company was not able to circumvent customs by choosing "local" distributors...
I am not sure, if this is even legal, what other companies do...

...but the 30 € extra (besides the 20$ for shipment) came in a little surprisingly xD

I didn't have to pay import fees with my Pillars Deadfire Collector's Edition (US to EU) and also not with Hand of Fate Ordeals Boardgame (Australia to EU) ... xD so I was wondering, where this went wrong xD
