Title: Shipping question
Post by: Two4D2 on February 19, 2017, 10:37:36 AM
Hey, I have a question about shipping.

I live in Slovenia and I used online calculator for shipping. The point is that I need tracked shipping to prove delivery of parcel. And I tried UPS and DHL calculator for 0.5 KG package and both shown about 75-85 EUR for shipping only Slovenia to Germany...

How can people send tracked parcels for like 10 or 20 EUR?

I'm not sure...
UPS offers features like Express or Express Plus etc.
But I think the UPS Standard shipping is cheaper, ~17 - 20 € ?

But no problem, just calculate yourself:

Yes that is true, very strange.

That I have found to DHL:

https://www.dhl.de/en/paket/preise/preise-international.html

There is written: up to 2 kg - 1 all EU countries ~ 8.89/ 9.00 €

But because of the inconsistencies (UPS online), it is better you ask directly your local provider for the prices  ;)

Do you have other local shipping couriers? Maybe can try their prices.
