psychedelic chipmunk Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 An arm and a leg. Ordered a few T-shirts from abroad, over 10 euro for shipping costs. Ordered them over a month ago, got a notice a few days ago they're finally cleared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juril Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I've recently sold some of my CDs on discogs and the shipping prices at my local post office have pretty much doubled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Multi-Media Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 A Russian wanted to buy 2 CDs from me..this was the 1st time since 2 years or so I checked the cost to send outside of the EU....and it seems it basically costs 3x as much now. Luckily we found someone in Germany to send the CDs who visits the Russina guy I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
technosomy Posted August 20, 2020 Author Share Posted August 20, 2020 what's interesting is there still seems to be some sellers around, offering cheaper prices than others from the same countries, not sure if it's a regional thing, or some are hiking them up to cover in case they get lost. seems mainly what is happening as the people with postage accounts are able to keep costs down, and gaining greater market share by this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
