Bird Bird Bird Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 Hmm. So it ain't exactly el cheapo. They updated my shipment with a delivery charge of 914 INR (~20.12 US$). This is on products worth 1700 INR (~37.5 US$). Amazon showed that the shipment weighed 1.74 lbs while SnS says it weighs 1.75 lbs (~794 gms). Dunno how these weights are calculated as all the package contains are 2 blurays (both double disk ones - weights not shown by Amazon) & 1 graphic novel (weight is 12 ounces i.e. 340 gms as per Amazon). I think they include the packing weight too (from what I've heard, they open the stuff and repack in their own boxes). Have asked for a breakup of the shipping charge. Waiting for reply from SnS.

Noctis Posted August 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 Weight is calculated based on the higher of volumetric or dead weight, all importers do this. Shipping charges are $10 for the first .5 kg and $8 for incremental ones, and in your case its 10+8+~2 tax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bird Bird Bird Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 ^^ Yeah. Guess it's more of Amazon's fault as they tend to use those fluffy boxes, so volumetric weight will be higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigsaw Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Registered with the USD5983402 code... worked flawlessly!! Just a small doubt... is everyone *storing* their CC info with these folks? Unlike Google Checkout ( as an example ), i dont see an option to delete my CC details from the website. Would much rather prefer being prompted for card details at every transaction than leaving everything with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gah!!Was planning to order something through them but the shipping charges are more than the actual cost of the product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
