*orders shipment via DHL*
*they sent via DHL express (NL -> DE)*

uh wtf. why.

@JennyFluff a bunch of EU warehouses are in NL, I've found

@JennyFluff and like, for us it's closer than most of Germany ;)

@JennyFluff in my experience ordering from a company is usually the same price for the entire EU

@noiob not my experience; also not when you ship stuff from Germany. Any location but islands in Germany are the same price, but cross the border? Price increase!

@JennyFluff when you ship, sure, but companies generally give one rate for mainland EU (they might just eat the difference). It'd be way more expensive than having one warehouse per country

@noiob the only company that did give me a flatrate for EU was GLS, they charged by package dimensions.

But almost everybody I know hates that services.
