Getting games from abroad, NON US
« on: August 25, 2011, 04:33:19 PM »
Ok, so getting big stuff from the US seems to be a problem, unless you have loads of friends over there who have lots of time to spare and friendly customs on this this.

Who do you use as international shipping service when you cannot do a roadtrip for various reasons?
Like from France to Belgium, Holland, Germany or Luxembourg for instance. Anyone in particular who is a good value for money and trustworthy?

I wonder who Paul from Paul's 50's uses. I think prices there were pretty reasonable ?

That's exactly what I thought.

TNT made me an offer to ship me one palette 200km, for 400€, which is four times what the object is worth in the first place, so no-go.

He uses Dachser but he gets special deal.
I've used them once through the company of a friend (because they don't deal with individuals, only companies).
Still cheap, fast and reliable.
