Hi All,
I'm looking for any hints/tips/advice on shipping to Australia for someone who has never done it before, and who made the mistake of a cheap Bali table which once shipping/customs/gst/fumigation/handling fees etc etc almost DOUBLED the cost!
I'm aware of the timber issue in Australia and I assume we just request the proper paperwork from vans regarding this?
I have been given advice to buy as much as I can afford up front and ship together to save costs, but with buying tools I'm not in the position to purchase any more than the emp kit and a couple of practice kits.
I have asked vans for an idea of costs to ship the emp kit, and its around the $1000USD range, which seems excessive but maybe this is cheap??
Thanks again to all the experienced people on here and their willingness to give advice. It's a truly great resource.
