I’m referring to a shipment weighing no more than 12kg. It seems that when Pandabuy was available, this would have only cost me half the current price. Now, with Superbuy, I’m baffled by these prices. Am I alone in feeling this way? To be fair, I am shipping a new pair of ‘World Famous Brand’ New Balance shoes, but a $100 increase is just crazy.
It’s indeed alarming to see how much shipping costs have surged lately. I’ve noticed similar trends with a variety of carriers. In my experience, consolidating shipments can sometimes help. Instead of shipping items individually, gather a few items and send them all at once. This approach can sometimes reduce costs since some companies offer discounts on bulk shipments. Additionally, keeping an eye on promotions or special deals around major shopping events might also offer some temporary respite from the high costs.
yeah i here u. Shipping fees have skyroketted for sure. A friend recommended trying smaller, local companies or even package forwarding services, but its a mixed bag. They might offer better rates or be less reliable. Guess we just need 2 hang in there till things settle down.
You know, your situation got me thinking about the broader global shipping trends that might be causing these fluctuations. Could it have something to do with the supply chain issues we’ve been hearing so much about? 
I wonder if there’s anyone in the logistics industry here who can share some insider insights.
Also, have you considered reaching out to your social circle or online communities to see if there’s a group shipping option or a cooperative shipping effort? It’s kind of a wild idea, but maybe there’s strength in numbers, so to speak. Has anyone tried that approach? I’d be interested to hear if those have worked out or not.
