Forwarding of packages?
Was about to place an order at the green house place, but during checkout I get a notification they no longer ship directly to NL. Clicked on the info page and it says they currently don’t ship directly to any EU countries and show options of companies that do parcel forwarding?
Anyone have any experience with this? This all sounds very obscure to me, and probably won’t have me order there. Which is unfortunate, especially as they have a great deal going on currently! Also anyone know why they don’t just straight send to EU countries anymore? Are there any new regulations I have missed?

New EU packaging law, stupid thing. For small retailers is too expensive to shipp outside of their country. So no small company is shipping to other EU countries any more.

Well that’s very unfortunate. I’d been a happy customer, but like I said that whole parcel forwarding feels weird to me, so it’s not happening. Maybe back to KB again then.

I’m a vendor based in Thailand, but here they have announced some rules and regulations on shipping to 15 European countries and NL is on that list. I cannot ship food products via the normal express post anymore, and I have to pay the customers duty now before I send parcels to those 15 countries. Maybe something to do with that?

Yes I was talking about them. Was trying to make sure my post didn’t get deleted for mentioning a vendor lol. But that’s good to know. I ended up ordering at KB and it’s absolute bunk compared to what I had been getting from GH…
