I get asked why shipping is so much higher to some countries. Packages to the following 4 countries get delivered religiously :-
Canada : USA : UK : Japan and to these countries, I ship regular air mail, without tracking numbers, but with proof of mailing.
I have had enormous delivery/customs delay in other countries. Buyers want answers and I cannot provide any information, without tracking numbers. I end up refunding the entire amount paid to me. I have had to decide that to the Rest of the World, I will only ship X-Press Post, with tracking numbers.
Shipping in US Funds (This includes packing, handling etc.) :-
Within Canada - $25.00.
USA - $35.00.
UK : Japan - $50.00.
Following must travel with tracking numbers only :-
All other countries (ExceptAustralia/NewZealand/Taiwan/Macau) $75.00.
Australia/NewZealand/Taiwan/Macau. $85.00.
