Hi, I ship International from time to time, typically one folder. Well I had someone from Germany buy $850 worth of cutlery off me today. I would usually just package em up, ship using USPS Priority since its the only way to insure internationally. Well, Im hesitant due to the decent price tag. I feel if I put $850 worth of knives on the custom form then something bad will come from it. The only other time I shipped that much stuff across USA lines was to Canada and they took it upon themselves to confiscate 6 Spydies that they sell in Canada!!!!!
I guess what I am asking, has anyone had problems shipping high dollar stuff to Germany? Im gonna insure the package, but Im thinking it might be a waste of $. I insured the 6 confiscated by Canadian customs but was not able to make a claim since they were not lost or stolen(IMO they were). How would you go about shipping $850 worth of knives to Germany? Thanks for any insight. Peace.
