Oh, I don't think it is that cheap, just the west is so expensive. UPS want $70+ to ship 500g by air.
I get charged US$80.00 for 0.4m3 @ 350kgs shipped by sea from China. So that's $200.00 per cubic metre. A 40ft container has a volume of 67.7 m3. So that's $13,540.00 for shipping a container of small volumes. And, how many containers does a slow boat from China hold????
