Great haul indeed, our limit from Europe is also 200 before they start asking questions. I carry photos of my collection & my current stock list on my phone, to prove I have a collection & secondly that having a large number with me, really is likely to be for my own consumption. That said I'd still be loath to push it. My biggest problem will be if & when I finally move back to the UK.
What yr are the BCG?

I like playing it safe since French customs can be very uptight and you can lose everything if you go over the 200 limit and end up paying a fine on top of that. I have family in Germany and just ask them to ship me the rest if I buy to much.
The BCG is from 2016, I would have loved a box with a little age on them but it was the last box they had. I'll let it sleep with all the other boxes that I have put aside. I find that it's not easy to get aged boxes. I have found boxes from 2010 on without a problem but some of the older stuff I have looked at wasn't to my liking, so I started aging boxes myself. The problem is that this takes up a lot of space.
