Has FedEx’s pricing changed recently? I sent a small parcel to EU in December which cost me $130, fast forward 3 months and I’ve sent a similar sized and weight (0.5kg) item to the US and been quoted $300. WTF??
Is this normal? Something to do with tariffs? Or just an increase in shipping costs? $300 for such a light/small parcel is criminal.
I'm in the UK and on Tuesday I ordered something from a US company and chose the cheapest possible FedEx International Economy shipping, which had an expected delivery date of the 14th September.
It actually arrived this morning :) So how does that happen?
Obviously I'm delighted, and I'm also intrigued to know how it negotiated the system so quickly when I was expecting it to take 2 weeks. Shipped in the US on the 1st, arrived at my door in the UK on the 3rd, all at International Economy price.
It was a very small, light package - would that be part of the reason?
