$5 a kilo? And you're complaining? I was recently quoted 370 for 25 kilos

Who is your shipper? I want to use them

Your price is fair honestly. Shipping weighs largely on ecom business...

I have been exclusively surface shipping since February. I can get a container loaded and shipped for $300 to USA Then freight from port or UPS/Fedex from distribution center.

What's the estimated delivery time from the moment the shipment starts moving?

10 days across the pond. Then....port, transit etc... 10-50 days. Riots and Covid(mostly governors mandates) have crippled the supply chain.

I have one now... 23 days total so it is getting better.

Does your forwarder handle it for you, or you handle it on your own?

Register for a VAT number and you can claim the 20% you pay for the import

Nice one thanks for that. Got my company already registered so worthwhile getting a vat number.

if you have contact with local Chinese say in Chinatown(Toronto,Vancouver),they travel back and forth from Canada to China or know someone who is coming from China,ask them to bring them along,of course there is a limit of how much they can bring .

$300 for container load sounds low?
and how much does Fedex or UPS charge you ?
