Shipping International

ok guys, i am hoping someone on here has done this before.....

i am interested in potentially getting a tank here in china, but if the shipping costs are too outrageous, than forget about it.....

anyone done it before from asia to the USA?

all info/comments/suggestions are welcome....

Call your airline company to see if you can bring that along with you, I'd be more worried about it being cracked in transit.

On my return flight from HK and I was able to bring a large box with me for no additional charge. It was a rear swaybar for my Legacy GT. The box itself was about 5' long x 12" x 12". It was light but took up volume. It was Continental so your mileage may vary depending on who you fly with.

My g/f who went to China taking Asiana Airlines had trouble with them even going over a few pounds and was about to charge her for it...

Shipping will be outrageous cause even a small box will cost you a lot I can't imagine a large glass tank. Your best bet is to try to take it with you on the airline.
