Shipping rates  (see below for rates reference table)

Our shipping rates are generally weight-based;  volume-weight may be considered when items are light, but big or bulky.  The weights of all items are listed in the detailed item-description pages.  Consistent with policies of the shipping companies we use, all weights will be rounded up to the next half or full kilogram, depending on the total weight of the shipment and the shipping method you choose.  Shipping costs calculated during checkout are estimated costs.  With the order confirmation, you will receive a fixed price for shipping and handling.

Please note that shipping rates are subject to change without notice.

 

Bulk shipping at lower costs can be arranged for large orders.  If you are interested in having your order shipped by shared air-freight or shared ocean-freight, please contact us.

 

Import duty

Import duties are determined by the country that the product is shipped to, that is, its destination.  We do not have any influence on the enforcement of those duties and bear no responsibility for them.  Many countries, such as the U.S.A., do not impose import duties on the products we sell.  However, if import duties were demanded, it would be your responsibility as the buyer to pay those duties and all associated fees in accordance with the laws and regulations of the destination country.

Shipping & handling rates reference table

The shipping rates in this table are estimates only.  They can help you to determine the approximate shipping & handling cost for any given item on our website.  To do so, you need to add-on about 30% of the item weight for packaging.  The weight of an item is listed in the detailed item-description page.
Also, during checkout, the total weight of your shipment will be calculated (including packaging) and the appropriate costs for shipping & handling will be estimated.

Canadian customers may be required to pay GST (Goods and Service Tax).
