I won a pair of kicks off Ebay and the seller's from the UK. He's charging me 39GBP for shipping

"Your pricing results for a delivery to Canada weighing 1.8 kg with up to£150 compensation to be delivered in 10 Days are..."

I've only gotten a pair of kicks once from EU (Germany to be exact) and I'm pretty sure it didn't cost that much. To add, I see a lot of Ebay.UKsellers charging under 20GBP

Question: Is it really that expensive? What's the most economical way to ship here to Canada?

Don't get me twisted here, I'll pay for my kicks, but I couldn't justify paying for that much on shipping alone. Mind you the kicks ended @ 65 GBP

so you won the BID or BIN but you didnt check how much he charging for shipping?

my wife used to send me shoe when im still in US its not that expensive.
 
The most economical is surface mail - but that takes like 6 weeks - that would be £11.13.

I get a small packet airmail as £21.06 and Airsure (express delivery and signature confirmation) as £25.56.

Sounds like he's charging a bit much - £30 would be more like it to take into account the packaging and stuff.

I only offer Airsure to overseas buyers as it's the only one that meets Paypal's seller protection criteria.
