sending by airmail?

[cro320]

I am looking to buy sport leather seats in my country 3 years now without sucess, everything I found is ruined.
I am curious, is it possible that I buy seats in UK and then be send to Croatia? Is this possible and how expensive it is?

If the person is willing to set up a DHL collection from their house (this can be done and paid for on-line) then its not much hassle. I just sent some pretty big parcels to Canada that way (a whole motor bike stripped and boxed) and each one cost £150 this was the maximum size they would send, some weighed less than others but with air-mail you pay for the virtual weight worked out from the cubic capacity of the box apparently.

I reckon you would have to send the seats separately due to weight so you would be looking at £300 for the two fronts, thats if its similar to Canada but it might be cheaper.

I was thinking of taking only front ones, but 300 quid seems overpriced
any cheaper method?

It was only a guide when I sent to Canada, may be cheaper to Croatia.

Other thing you can do is to find a BMW Scrap in UK who send their parts international (world wide) because they can get special deals when they send stuff. To send a complete leather interior from Germany to Sweden is 100-200 euros with their currier...

Why would you send airmail?

Across Europe you can use palletline or something similar. Much cheaper and you can get a whole interior on a pallet. More than likely £120 for the service.

From Croatia I would be looking at buying something in Germany.
Try ebay.de - you may find something ok.

I am sure FAB ship worldwide, I have seen engines crated and ready to go.

I found a guy on ebay.de that has two red sports seats for sale and he will ship worldwide. Seats are ok but at least you can get a fair idea of the price of shipping from him.

If you are buying from germany try these guys for shipping - I used them for my borbets and worked out at about 80 euros.

There's some in Poland, and it's only a 1000km drive (each way!)

Does this mean driving to collect them with no seats
