    In order to save on the shipping costs you may need to use an online shop that is closer to you (Europe).

    It doesn't sound right. You didn't order buckets nor any gallons size chemicals which definitely contribute to higher shipping fee.

    I am guessing your order's weight is less than 15kgs. $390/15kg = U$26/kg is very expensive.
    Started back in 2006 reading Mike. P posts and lots of practices, ended up writing a book

    Maybe my math is wrong but after adding all the fluid weights together i came up with roughly 20lbs or 9kgs. The box would still be some what large due to how many products. Its a possibility that one of the products prohibit the package from going in a plane. Idk still seems pretty expensive though. Considering I bought HID headlights shipped from Japan years ago and I think i only paid 20 bucks. Granted this was a much smaller and lighter box.

    Ok international shipping isn't cheap for either of us, I looked into this shipment and its based on destination, we can quote a cheaper carrier but we usually pick the ones we know that will arrive safely. We find some countries over others do not do well with US Mail. This package was two boxes both over 20lbs if you factor that into where it is going the fees are high.
    I will send you the most economical way and the prefered way, we just can't guarantee if something goes wrong the shipper will work quickly with us to fix it.

    Again international shipping is by far not cheap especially when you order chemicals and lots of BOGOs that add weight.
