Pricing

One fee on the goods. Everything else at cost.

We charge a percentage of the goods value. Freight, duties and destination charges are quoted separately, with the carrier's rate shown next to ours.

Service fee

Based on goods value before freight. Invoiced in USD.

Photos, counts and defects go to you. Rework or returns are raised with suppliers before shipping.

Freight is invoiced at booking with the carrier's rate attached. Balance is due before departure.
