gryphon1Freighting antlers from Sweden.
Can anyone suggest the the BEST company (price too) of having antlers (20 Kilo`s in box total weight) from Sweden to Australia?
So far i was quoted $1200 yep thats $1200 bucks.
Seems outrageous considering a 100 kilo man can fly there and back for $1800 whereas a 20 kilo box @ $1200? yeah right!

NorwegianwoodsHave you received a detailed price overview on that freight offer?
They might have put on a (very) high insurance on it.
When I got some trophies from SA 2 years ago, the invoice I got about the freight costs was very high. But it was very detailed and I saw that the insurance was ridiculously high in my opinion.
So I reduced the insurance with a lot and that more than halved the freight cost.
I don't see the point of paying much insurance on trophies/memories that is irreplaceable.
