I'm in the UK and I just posted one of these to someone in Vegas and it cost 80 bucks.

I think he's tryin to play you for a fool, unfortunately, some people exaggerate on postage to make a bit more money.

If you go the cheapest way, non-rushed shipping from Europe, it can take weeks. He may be giving it a rushed delivery, in which case you can get it in 2-3 days. One auction that I won and had shipped here from Germany, I was given that choice. It was like $30 shipping vs. $60 shipping for a pair of taillights. After he actually got to the post office, I had it in 2 days.

does UPS / Fedex / DHL / ??? means EXPRESS shipping ? as in you'll get the package in few days ?

i'm looking info about this also. i dont mind waiting for 4-6 weeks, if it saves a lot of money. the seller asked Fedex, it cost around 1,300 euro just to ship a set of rims from germany to canada. :shock:

any recommendation ?

If he sends it german post, then it will be 4-6 weeks probably.

FedEx/DHL/UPS have daily flights to and from europe, and that's why it's express only with them. Otherwise, it would just sit in a warehouse somewhere. They move packages a LOT faster than the postal service does.


But seriously, "If you ship internationally, you've gotta use FedEx"
