How to order iRobot Roomba (and any equipment with batteries) from EBAY?

Question

ebay

If I understand everything correctly, then there is a battery in the Rumbach? Batteries are prohibited from shipping by US mail. How to order correctly so that the goods reach Russia?

Answer 1

I’ll add mmatros to the answer : if the seller doesn’t ship directly to Russia or puts an inadequate shipping cost (for example, $ 150 via USPS Priority), then there are at least three options ( I personally tested ) and a few that haven’t been tested. I'll write from my experience :

• shipito send via airmail express
• shopfans send via priority bww
• polar express send, in fact, through polar air itself

Everything with tracking and insurance, but if the product is obviously defective, then you will 100% lose the dispute on eBay , because. a 40-day period will already be released , but on small things ( ms arc mouse ), obtained in this way, it was possible to recapture the money from the seller. Therefore, I prefer to buy expensive goods in the store ( Amazon ), because. then it will be possible to send the goods for repair (the return is often limited to a 30-day period) and even once I was even replaced with a new one ( pentax DSLR ), but I will have to pay the transport costs myself.

If the seller offers delivery to Russia, then don't worry about the batteries. The seller is responsible for shipping, not you. He will solve the problem with delivery (for your money :)

Not so long ago, after introducing a limitation on batteries, they sent me a phone with a battery by the cheapest mail for $ 5 in my opinion.
