Question:

I am currently looking for a shipping partner, specifically to bring appliances in from outside of the EU.
Does any member have any trusted partners they currently work with?

1. Depending on where from Ital logistics is an option but I have only used for Germany and Italy.
2. The company we have worked with before is Oceanblue. We purchased some goods from Australia, and this is the shipping company they used.
