i just tried Popflash this morning, they wanted to charge me US$52 on shipping and I ordered only 1 filter and flash cap cover!!!

unfortunately, they are all about USD40 for international shipping even for small items / parcels.

Try to use Vpost service... cheaper than using their international shipping services.

 

[Yatlapball]

the downside is... vpost is slow...

well, relatively anyway. comparing to the 2-3 day for international express couriers...

I'm getting mine from B&H. The filter is USD79.95, and shipping is USD35.55 for 1 piece and only USD36.10 for 2 pieces. If you want to split the order, we could save half shipping cost! Let me know quickly; I'll be putting in an order tonight or tomorrow.

That is strange...:dunno: Usually shipping for 1 filter from Popflash is US$15 for USPS Priority Post. If buy more, they will ship by USPS Express for about US$25-30.

I bought 2 B+W 486 UV/IR 52mm filters from a Maxsaver,HK-based online store, about 2 months ago. The link to their website is http://maxsaver.net/index.aspx. The filters cost US$59 each, and combined shipping for both filters were US$8. They shipped through HK Post and it took about a week for the filters to get here.

Hi,

I am getting one also just check and yes popflash wanted to charge USD53 around for shipping, B&H and Maxsaver all out of stock for the filter. Looks like either we have to wait or get from pop flash who charges the most ex for the filter (USD93) and also the highest shipping rate .. guess i better wait a while But if any bro out there can get anything more reasonable pls do sms me at 91555685 as I need 1 for my 15mm too .....

Many thanks

Doesn't seem like B&H is out. Of course, I haven't completed check out yet. Anyway, it's US$79.95 plus shipping (around US$30+ for 1 or 2, not sure how much for 3 or more but there would definitely be savings for sure). PM me if you are interested to join. I'll probably put in an order in 3 hours or so.

My stuff from popflash came in a paded envelope and postage was US$3.81 only. Contents are worth much more than US$79.95.

Cheers,
