May 18, 201115 yr Commercial Member Hi,The shipping prices are not actually being set by us - those are the direct prices from FedEx and USPS based on the weight/size of the package and the destination. Fuel costs are the main reason they're so high now... nothing we can really do about that. It costs quite a lot to ship things even within the US now too. The USPS options are cheaper but it's less reliable and may take many weeks to get there. Ryan MaziarzFor fastest support, please submit a ticket at http://support.precisionmanuals.com
May 18, 201115 yr To be honest, I refused to buy the FCTM because of outrageous transport-costs. Steven Albi
May 18, 201115 yr Commercial Member I wish there was a better way guys - shipping stuff across oceans costs money, that's really the truth unfortunately. Ryan MaziarzFor fastest support, please submit a ticket at http://support.precisionmanuals.com
May 18, 201115 yr I wish there was a better way guys - shipping stuff across oceans costs money, that's really the truth unfortunately.It's not that I do not want to pay the transport, but it's really too expensive (around €80 euro transport costs, that's EXclusive the price of the manual) and I know it's not PMDG's problem. I'm waiting untill a wholesale business is going to sell them, such as AviationMegaStore, located in the Netherlands. Steven Albi
May 18, 201115 yr The costs of the transport to Brazil by FedEx is $300. 20 bucks less than the price of the manuals. Matheus Mafra
May 18, 201115 yr I paid freight costs of $180US for the NG Cheif pilot set and about $140US for the MD11 set, I decided that Fedex Priority Intl was the way to go, recieved them in 3 buisness days from Kmem to New Zealand. Less chance of them being damaged in transit and as Ryan said, taking forever using standard post. I They arrived in mint condition and superfast. CheersJulian Evans
May 18, 201115 yr I will say having purchased these items and recently received them that they are really heavy, and U.S. domestic shipping was failry quick. $180 is pretty steep, though, I will give you that. Doug Orvis PP-ASEL-IA (USA), Based at KHEF Picture courtesy of Kyle Rodgers
May 18, 201115 yr I'm sure the transport costs to Dubai where I live now would be a disaster as well.I have a trip to New York in the coming days// PMDG would it be possible to find the manual sets somewhere from a retail in Manhattan? [pretty sure the answer would be "no" but no harm to ask....]Cheers! Regards, Martin Martinov / VATSIM 1207931

May 18, 201115 yr You do get what you pay for with FedEx - they're really good and you always know exactly where the package is.Very true. Year before last I expedited a package to Toronto from Texas on Dec. 22nd & they had drivers out making rounds (literally following the plow trucks) till midnight Christmas eve to make sure they got delivered on time. I was sweating bullets too because I'd brought that package home personally from Tokyo...My 2nd & probably last ride on a 777... 14 hrs, I actually acquired a taste for Heineken on that flight just to stay passed out....

May 18, 201115 yr You do get what you pay for with FedEx - they're really good and you always know exactly where the package is.USPS, not so much. For instance my package was deemed "missent" at like 4 in the morning the day it arrived and then it magically appeared. Glad to have it, but that was disconcerting. But for $17 for shipping I probably won't get too much sympathy here. Doug Orvis PP-ASEL-IA (USA), Based at KHEF Picture courtesy of Kyle Rodgers
