Try shipping a 38" long glider internationally. I get KILLED on postage
because of the size/length of my box. Anything over 24" long gets a
surcharge. It's mostly priced me out of the overseas market. People get
a little put off when they buy my glider for $75 and they find out
shipping is $37.50. I've had to issue several refunds because of the
high cost of international shipping.
