Code:.--------------------------------------------------------. | CE PostmarketOS Convergence | $ 199.99 | | DHL Exp. Shipping and handling | $ 30.00 | | DHL Exp. Remote are surcharge | $ 38.00 | | DHL Exp. Duty/Tax Charges | $ 33.00 | '---------------------------------------------'----------' | Total | $ 300.99 | '--------------------------------------------------------'
50% in shipping, absolutely insane, whilst (sadly) only $10 to the devs...
That is bonkers. In general European customers are worse off because they have to pay a lot of Tax (which most US customers don't). That remote area surcharge is also crazy...
