A lot of people in the past have asked me why do i ship direct from Egypt to the customer...
Well after a lot of calculations and thought the reasons are as follows
1, Dealing direct with Egypt i have a distinct advantage of getting for my customers unusual items probably not found elswhere
2, The customer knows it is authentic coming straight from the motherland
3, I do not have to deal with whoelsale quantitys and i feel i offer the customer a more personal service this way
4, Here is an example if i had the products here in Cyprus on what shipping costs would be against what shipping costs are direct
Egypt to Spain normal surface mail based on a 6kg parcel up to 7 days 35 euro
Cyprus to Spain normal surface mail based on 6kg parcel up to 7 days 39.30 euro
The same parcels in the same order EMS Egypt to spain 45 euro 3 days
EMS Cyprus to spain 52.11 euro 3 days
And the same goes for all other european countrys cheaper to ship direct rather than from Cyprus
