Shipping Prices are riddiculous.

Sun 23 Jun 2019, 22:13

Hey there!

This is Johannes, from Brazil. o/ 

I've been buying shit from the internet for more than a decade, but I never saw such an absurd price for shipping as this. I've had shit from UK Games Workshop, from China, India, the US and all that. I've never seen such reality-deprived cost for shipping as this. I really love this project and wanted to pre-order a bundle, but the shipping price is such bullshit, you can count me out.

God knows I've bought enough shit from across the ocean to know this 400 kr price for shipping alone is dissociated from reality.

Shame shame.

400$ kr ?

What currency are you using $ or kr. You should probably take that with [email protected] if something have gone wrong with your currency choice.

edit: I know that shipping isn't that high as 400$. Shipping is a little bit higher for the special editions bundles though because they has to be shipped to Sweden (I think) first and then away.

I don't know what you mean by that since I can't see the picture.

edit: 400 kr is about 40-45 dollar. Why not change the currency to something more global. like dollar or euro (or pound).

No. Picture may be private or something, but regardless. Shipping cost is different for different countries. But since I do guess that you don't use kronor as a currency, why not switch to dollar instead. 400 kr is just about 40-45 dollar.

Shipping to the US was under $20. That's less than I'd expect for in-US shipping. That's less than I paid for smaller books to be shipped by FFG! 
The standard bundle was $94 ish, and total including shipping was $109.32. So it was 14% (1/7) the purchase price.

Paypal shows I paid Kr1027...  and the bundle was Kr878 .. so Kr149 shipping to the US.

Shipping to South America is often expensive; I've seen people complain about it for other companies, too. 

Keeping in mind I'm not affilitated with FriaLigan except as a customer.... I decided I'd look up the shipping rates from the Swedish postal system. https://ds.postnord.com/v2/ptm/file/dow ... ion=inline

Brazil is in Zone 7 - NordPost Parcel is Kr1482 (+Kt14/kg)
NordPost International Parcel outside Europe is Kr370 for ≤1kg, and Kr475 for ≤2 kg

So, no, Kr400 to Brazil isn't insane. It's NordPost...
