But I'm looking to buy some big items like lights and chairs. At the same time buy small items like coasters etc.. So thinking I can consolidate everything and get them shipped over at one go using amcon. Did you buy big or small items? Which freight forwarder/agent did you engage?

Which freight forwarder/agent did you engage?I only used Peeka b4 and the biggest items bot is only 2 spin mop with the pails and a lugguage (an equivalent volume weight of the shipping cost will be waived ie the shipping cost of the lugguage is free.) That time I did not know abt forwarder.Recently i purchase a dog pee tray thru forwarder so i still do not know the total cost incld the cc bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
