Not sure if I’m the only one who’s noticed this with the frequency that I order things for my business, but I’m seeing a MAJOR shipping cost increase from Amazon JP to England. Does anyone have any inclination as to why this might be? Is it COVID related? Couriers like DHL themselves raising prices? Or some other reason affecting Japan?
I place an identical order every month where shipping is usually £20, but it is now £96!

Holiday surcharges my dude.
I’m guessing because of Brexit. Japan has some trade deals with the EU, and it’s about time for all of the cross-over periods to be done so now those deals are gone.
Just a wild guess though.
Holy crap that’s expensive
