about the international shipping fee

[davidcyt]

first of all, i love NP more products, members here are cool
but compare with BB why the intrnational shipping are more expensive about 40 bucks(i live in UK)
is it because of the tax?
if so. if i used gift certificate can solve the tax issue?

thanks

I have used Nutra a couple of times to the UK and there shipping rates seem reasonable to me.

Are you trying to order big tubs of things (ie whey, etc)?

Perhaps MOD EDIT: Not sure NP likes that. have a better shipping rate as they send more goods!

You paid US$40 more to np or the HM Revenue and Customs? Whatever the British government agencies asked you to pay had nothing to do with np.com's shipping charges.

Are you comparing the same shipping method?
e.g. 4 x Gaspari SizeOn (4 x 1.29kg)

bb.com:
International Postal (7-14 days) US$65.99

np.com:
USPS Priority Mail International (6 - 10 Days) $70.40

The difference is only US$4.41
However, the unit price of 1 SizeOn at bb.com is US$47.99 with a subtotal of US$191.96, making the total US$257.95.
The unit price at np.com is US$39.95 with a subtotal of US$159.80. The total at np.com is US$230.2.

Therefore, np.com will save the customer US$27.75 in this example.

If you ordered during their July 4th 50% off international shippng special, you would save much more. :thumbsup:
