When shipping kits to international destinations, we use TNT tracked air mail (currently being purchased by Fedex). Our service providers are fast and reliable.
Please note that shipping one kit costs the same as shipping two kits due to the way our carrier rounds up shipping weights. It is therefore wise to avoid buying single kits.
If you are unsure, simply play with the shopping cart as it shows shipping costs. The cart will show shipping costs as you add or remove items. Also remember to check the top right 'Currency' tab on this website if costs are not already shown in your currency. This website can display most currencies (apart from Rand).
Don't like the shipping costs? Just remember this, you are buying a product that is being sent by air courier. Also be aware that we offer one on one follow up support for your projects and we offer it for free. Yes, Steph and I do appreciate it when people donate for time spent but it is not an expectation. If you consider the time I spend helping you and other people (a minimum 1500 hours per year) and weigh this up against an hourly rate for a mechanic etc, the shipping all of a sudden becomes rather cheap. And along with this, you will always have access to the research on this site for free. That's the best I can do guys and gals. Beyond this, I cannot control shipping costs. Fast air shipping from country to country is what it is.
Please also note that while we ship our kits from our premises in New Zealand, our books are shipped from the publisher. Our publisher has print houses in the USA, UK, France and Australia, shipping worldwide.
We can also arrange bulk economy shipping of ten to fifteen bedding / stabilizer kits. The service is slower but shipping costs are much more economical. If you wish to purchase ten to fifteen kits, please contact us.
South African customers please note that all shipping to ZA attracts premium prices whether books or kits. This is due to the ZA postal service being so corrupt that it is pointless to utilize these services whether shipping books or kits. In this sense, please take note that the cost of shipping one book is the same as the cost of sending either a skills bundle or entire collection. So please try to avoid single book purchases (you will want more than one book after you have read the first anyway- they really are "lekker".
I hope these notes help answer your shipping questions.
Nathan.
