I see that Ian at Black Square will no longer be selling to EU customers. I guess his only work around would be selling on ebay and use Global Shipping.

Black Square is based in Ampthill, Bedfordshire. I was born in Luton, Bedfordshire. I live in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire.
There, that should give you a clue to our next course of action...!

Avoid High Wycombe at all costs?

He did Joe, but I'll let him have that one.
Anyway, I could order the decals for you or even visit Black Square Decals when all this Covid-19 is over. Ampthill is actually between Luton and Bedford, been there a few times when I lived in Luton.

Well, he is shipping to USA again (no worries on his part about VAT here) but he will only ship with expensive tracking and/or signed for parcel. I may have you act as the middle man again ... I'm blowing through supplies like there's no tomorrow. I need to do another decal order. About 10 days ago, I received an order from Steve Flowers which I placed back in the first part of December and ready to place another order. I'm wishing them all well and hope they can reopen soon.

My Steve Flowers order, which was placed after yours, arrived late last month. Why I received mine well before you received yours, I've no idea. But I also hope they're back up and running soon.

My order was pretty large. Probably had a lot to do with it.
