We have explored with Gearbest and they also using the DHL Hong Kong for shipment that contains Lithium battery. We are currently exploring with TNT to be another option. We also need to take the shipping company tier pricing into consideration, we more we split out to different shipping companies, shipping costs becomes higher due to we lost the tier advantages. As example, a person walk into the DHL and want to ship a 2KG weight package with Lithium battery from Hong Kong to EU, the shipping costs is about USD $60-$90. We will not consider EU warehouse for current time due to Pinebook has a thin profit margin and this is a high cost setup proposal. RE: Patiently awaiting shipping info - Pepe - 08-13-2017 As I know also Gearbest has EU warehouse. So from them it could be cheaper and sometimes they offer some discount via coupon or free shipping. |
