Hi
I ordered a Q100C motor from BMS battery. The cost breakdown is:
Q100C - £71.22 ex vat
Shipping £42.62 ex Vat
total £113.84.
I then got a call from DHL saying it would be £24 in customs charges. Also that its coming from Bahrain and not china.
Now I thought this was odd as it was a bit high. I ordered from PSW power and they handled customs charges.
So I added pair of torque arms (£11.37) and the shipping cost was £35 alone.... So I tried it again and now the shipping cost is £18.37 for a torque arm.. Something is not right here surely? Why are the shipping costs so high? Has anyone else had the same experience?
Edit: Also it hasn't even been picked up yet from Bahrain as I checked with DHL.
Edit 2: Green Bike kit have Q100's without customs charges for the EU.
thanks
