"$140.00 shipping to:" Really? This site is becoming increasingly redundant to a European customer such as myself, both in terms of pricing & the waiting period.
fin170Actually we have started to partner with different companies and open up channels for CAN/INT customers. Like on this drop https://www.massdrop.com/buy/arozzi-arena-adjustable-gaming-desk we are offering FREE shipping to Europe on a 120lbs desk!
We are doing the absolute best that we can. However, what it comes down to is big, heavy boxes are very expensive so ship internationally.

Tex-ArozziGood to know. Many of your Drops are products made in Europe, shipped state side and back to European customers again, least that's how I understand it. From a purely eco-friendly perspective that doesn't sit-well with me but if it's the nature of the current situation and there's an attractive deal to be had, I've been guilty of overlooking that aspect. It's a shame your European client base isn't lucrative enough to warrant a depot here, saving on cost, waiting and the environment. Thank you for your response.

Tex-ArozziThanks for the reply, I feel the pain. Even though it's $70 to Canada I imagine Massdrop is doing whatever they can, whenever they can. Thanks for the help!

Tex-ArozziFedex rate to Poland is 350 dollars without an account. 120.00 via Canada post so US post is gonna be pretty close this doesn't include tariffs and taxes. There are also going to be handling fees because the shipper is going to have to pay the tariffs in advance.
Seems to me 140 dollars is pretty cheap and the massdrop team is going to be eating some serious shipping fees.

fin170You should look up the shipping rates before you complain. 140 dollars to ship this is cheap actually.

direlandCheap you say... Perhaps $140 is cheap to you but it's obviously ridicules, in regards this product at this price point, from a European perspective and that's before customs charges are applied. I'm guessing you +1 your own comments because such lunacy is, thankfully, rare.

Tex-ArozziAny try helping lower shipping price is always welcomed especially when it gets to be free shipping to large and heavy desks and I personally thank you for that.. But also I have an other question to make if possible..

fin170Obviously you still haven't looked up the shipping rates to see that I know what I'm talking about. I spent an hour checking prices before I posted maybe you should do the same. And no I didn't plus 1 my own post ya fucking troll.

direland Suggest you 'look up' what (leaving the vulgarity aside) a troll is as I assure you I've better things to be doing than trolling & indeed researching shipping rates on a site whose foundation is built upon offering deals. My point stands; "... Obviously ridicules, in regards this product at this price point."

fin170Hey bud you started it. Don't accuse people of shit when you don't know what you are talking about. Having an opinion that counts means you've done your research instead of shitting on a sale or someone else's comment because you don't like the shipping rate. Hence the trolling comment.
I thought the shipping was expensive too but after going to creative site and getting the size and weight of the product and doing some shipping price comparisons I discovered the shipping to Poland is actually half price to what Joe Blow gets walking in off the street. FACT. I spent over an hour looking and checking prices before I made my post... you simply wiped your ass on the keyboard.
Further research I discovered my local retailers sell this for the price + shipping combined so actually it wasn't a horrible price point all things considered. So for people who don't have direct access to this particular item its a great deal. People still gotta make a profit however small right?
9 times outta 10 a commercial outlet will have a very similar price because they have already paid the shipping. I didn't just fall off the turnip truck bud... i do my research.
