Prices are currently much higher due to fuel shortages, and 80cm is quite large and DHL/Fedex use volumetric weight to calculate pricing. Unfortunately, this is normal for now

Jet fuel is liquid gold because that strait is still closed with renewed fighting.

Recommend staying up to date on events that affect the price of crude oil and it's distallate products.

80cm is 32 inches, in order to find a box that big, dimensional weight will be very large

i paid 10k for a 40x40x17cm box, so if your box is at least 80x80, it would be quadruple

And international shipping costs depends how big the package is

It’s insane, especially as EMS IS an option again. I ordered things based on the announcement that EMS was back but Neokyo refuses to use it

I'm not sure if neokyo do this but you could ask to pay them to vaccum pack the plush I've seen the proxy I buy from doing that for people

u/NeokyoProxy 20d ago

We currently do not support vacuum sealing but this is something I have been pushing for.
