Hello,
I was hoping a Armorama member from Luxembourg may be able to help me out.

I recently purched a large number of models from Ebay. I am based in Sydney, Australia. I estimated the postage costs based on what it would cost to send the same items from Australia to Luxembourg. It was $80 USD.

You could imagine my surprise when the Ebay invoice came and shipping was to be $245 USD. After talking to the seller and visiting www.ept.lu I believe these are the true prices. Post is obviously very expensive over there.

Could anyone recomend an alternative to this? I was thinking that there must be freight forwrds and shipping companies that could do it cheaper. I want to go via Sea Mail if possible to keep costs down.
The items are in Bereldange but the seller is happy to drive them where ever to help me out on postage.

If anyone can help with this I have a very nice surprise / reward for them that will be shipped to them at my expense.

Regards,
AndyD.
