Does anyone know why shippping is so outrageous when you buy cherry mx switches off armygroup.

I added in ~30 switches costing 330, but shipping is ~7000twd.

Anyone know why?

I believe they're in Asia, but I might be wrong.

yes they are in asia, taiwan to be exact

but having ordered a some stuff off them that weighs more than the switches it only costs around like 800twd to ship

not 7000twd to ship

There are sites in the US that sell switches. They're in the Cherry MX wiki entry, but I can remember that Mouser.com has them. They're usually $1 to 80 cents a switch, plus whatever shipping would be. Might be a better deal.

They charge a nominal shipping rate and extra NT$100 per additional item which explains why they cost so much
