    I have not personally used any of these sites, but I know belgiuminabox.com has been used with good results by the folks on here

    I placed an order Sunday. Got a notice that they shipped today. My first experience with them, fingers crossed for safe delivery.

    As with most of these international beer websites, shipping prices them out of the game for me.

    Just filled up a cart with 22 beers. Shipping was $200.

    No thanks.

    Euro is weak right now. Good time to order from there.

    I need to get in good with this Kurt guy. If shipping fees can be tamed a bit, it would be promising.

    So I'm guessing the best way to mitigate shipping is to split an order with a local friend, yeah?

    Not sure shipping is really that flexible. It's really what it costs to ship international.

    Yeah, if you can get a container shipped then it's 25% of the value of the container+ any excise you might need to pay. Not cheap. So you can understand the horribly expensive price for just chucking 20 bottles or so half way round the world
