Shipping Plans

Individual service - €5.50 fee per package - No monthly fee

Shop online and have the package(s) sent to our address. We will forward individual packages to you. Each package is sent to you exactly as they come.

How it works

  • You will pay for each individual package we receive and forward to you. The cost is €5.50 per package plus postage.
  • You can always log in to your account and select the shipping method for each package. Actual postage will be recalculated instantly.
  • Your account will show you the actual amount of your deposit. This is where you can also fill out the customs declaration for each package (value, description of goods, etc.).
  • Whenever we get a new package, we will send you an email notification.
  • We can try to make a package smaller to fit USPS size limits. Use Special Request on your account for that.
  • Whenever we send you a package you will get an email with notification and tracking number.
  • INDIVIDUAL service does not offer consolidation of packages (merging several packages in to one bigger package). Please select Group service if you need this service.
  • Extra surcharge for heavy packages over 30 pounds is €7.50, over 70 pounds - €18, over 100 pounds (freight manipulation fee) - €27 and over 150 pounds - €42. Overweight fee is charged even if the package is trashed.
  • Customer should have enough deposit on his/her account so we can forward a package within 7 days after we receive it in our warehouse. Otherwise we charge storage fee €1-€5 (depending on the package weight) every day.

GROUP service - Unlimited size only €50 per year or €10 per month


GROUP allows you to save on postage. We will consolidate packages for larger shipments. For example: instead of mailing three packages, we will put them all in a larger box and ship them as one package. The cost is €3 for each additional package merged up to maximum fee of €12 for one time repacking. If you want to add an additional package to an already merged package, the fee is an additional €3.

For example:
-If you send just one package we will mail it to you for a  fee of €5.50.

-If we merge two packages, you pay only €3 for merging and €5.50 for mail out. If we merge three packages, then you pay €6 for merging and €5.50 for mail out. If we merge 10 packages at the same time, you pay €12 for merging and €5.50 for mail out.

How it works

  • Unlimited size for regular size boxes & mail.
  • You can send each package individually or consolidated (packed together).
  • You can select how often you want your package forwarded (daily, weekly, bi-weekly, monthly or hold for instructions).
  • You can always log in to your account and select shipping method. Actual postage will be recalculated instantly.
  • Your account will show you the actual amount of your deposit. This is where to fill out customs declaration for each package (value, description of goods, etc.).
  • Whenever we get a new package we will send you an email notification.
  • Whenever we send you a package you will get an email notification and tracking number..
  • Extra surcharge for heavy packages over 30 pounds is €5.50, over 70 pounds - €12, over 100 pounds (freight manipulation fee) - €22 and over 150 pounds - €32. Overweight fee is charged even if the package is trashed.
