I have a "deal" with a private person. Track frame set. Pretty small, so the box isn't going to be huge.
We agreed on an all in price, incl shipping.
But the seller was surprised by the high shipping rates. I don't want the deal to be cancelled because of this. Maybe we've got to share the shipping costs to make it attaractive enouth to both of us.
I still see bloggers offering stuff with shipping rates of EUR 50.- for a frame set to NL / U.K., so it looks like it must be possible.
I got myself another frame set from Italy 2 years ago. Was sent through GLS and the shipping costs weren't an issue at that time.
Just curious what your experiences are.
Thanks for the feedback, J!
More advice is appreciated.
