gigantoraptor Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Hello Does somebody knows a way to shiptooth at a lower price? I want to trade fossils with somebodya from south-korea but the shipping costs are way too high. Nearly 120$. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Try another dealer. The price sounds outrageous. Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Andy- Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 What quantity of teeth are we talking? How large is the box etc? I've known large boxes of fossils to cost over 160 USD through DHL. Looking forward to meeting my fellow Singaporean collectors! Do PM me if you are a Singaporean, or an overseas fossil-collector coming here for a holiday!

Doctor Mud Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Swallows? But seriously.... Yes, there are lots of factors involved. How big is the package, speed of delivery, if insurance is required. Is $120 the quote you got to send your package to South Korea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go along with the others. You need to give more details on what you want to ship. Size? Weight? Contents? Insurance? Greetings from the Lake of Constance.

sdsnl Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Any chance you misplaced the decimal point when entering the weight for the postage calculation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixgill pete Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I just checked the USPS website. To send a small priority mail box with a 25 dollar value from my zip code to south korea is $31.95 Where did you get your price from? but, you are shipping from Belgium, I have no idea about your postal service. However $120 sounds way to much to me.

Ludwigia Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 You can send up to 2 Kilos from Germany worldwide for €16. I imagine the prices are similar in Belgium. Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludwigia Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Just now, gigantoraptor said: No, half a kilo And that would cost €110 ?!?! Hard to believe. The price increases according to weight in Germany. As Großbrief under 500g.: €3,70. As Maxibrief under 1Kilo: €7,00. As Päckchen 1-2 Kilo: €16. As Paket under 5 Kilo: €45,99. etc., etc. I'd suggest you go to the post office and ask in person. Greetings from the Lake of Constance.
