Features of delivery of relatively large cargoes from abroad

Question

ebay

I'm going to order a snowboard on eBay, it weighs about 4 kg, length 160 cm, costs a little over $ 300, is located in the USA. Prior to that, I ordered exclusively every little thing, so I was not given any tracking numbers, insurance and other options.

What problems can arise during shipping? Which delivery service is better to choose? Do I need to ask the seller to pack the goods better? Do I need insurance and a tracking number, and how do I get them?

Answer 1

You will most likely have to ask the seller to send through a courier company. See ebaytoday.ru/shipping for the reason. Don't think this is not an ebaytoday ad. There is information about the types of deliveries. The main information is that the goods longer than 105 cm must be sent via EMS. or DHL (faster).

Answer 2

Ordered. Chose EMS - brought home. There were no problems, insurance, apparently, is already included, and tracking will be issued - it will be indicated in the list of your won lots.
In any case, the seller will pack well - this is in their interests, so all my lots came well-packed.

Answer 3

My maximum is 20 kilograms of toys by regular mail with insurance. Everything came. everything is intact. Ask the seller to pack well and ship with insurance. Couriers will be a little expensive, you can just use USPS, you can use airmail - it's faster.

Answer 4

You can order through WESTERN BID westernbid.com. The product will arrive at a warehouse in the USA, it will be repacked, which guarantees your product will arrive safe and sound + you can track the package at any time, because. track number provided.
