International Shipping Info

Hi,

I would like to ask if I were to purchase a snowboard with bindings, how much will the shipping cost be to Australia?

I understand that the cost is about $75 for one snowboard. Does this include the bindings or is it a seperate cost again?

Also, when you purchase the snowboard does it come with a bag or do you need to buy this seperately?

I am also a bit skeptical with shipping, hence will insurance be necessary?

Regards,
Jeremy

hey,

so i dont have any friends or family in the us. Can i purchase my order and have it 'sent' to TruSnow and then have it sent to me? Does anyone know people that offer this kind of service?

just so you know bongo, they dont allow shipment to fowarding companies anymore

Its a shame, of course it is. But please do remember that part of the reason trusnow's international system is a little more restrictive is because
1) they agreed to terms late on in the season. I assume many of those companies you use now will have similar terms over the next year or two. And
2) Its kind of the legacy of the discounts im afraid. You got great deals here, but its because you got such good deals via slightly nefarious means that TruSnow (as the offshoot of sierra) now have to take the hit.

I remember very distinctly wondering how it was that on the international customer thread there was a whole discussion topic including members of staff recommending mail forwarding. Im not attacking people or sierra because i LOVE what sierra did for international *customers*, but the facts are that a year down the line things are now far worse for us (internationals) than they could have been had the owner of sierra just waited until march to go discount mental. :)

Not only have we lost some incredible sales through retail timetables (including clampdowns on both timings and website 'discount' systems - killing competition by standardizing prices) and some amazing shipping deals, but manufacturers are now really clamping down on forwarding services. My anticipation is that within the next two years, no site outside of maybe ebay and craigslist is going to be sending you a board through a (known) mail forwarder. And proving your case that its being sent to a friend in the states, is going to become a lot harder.   

What we have to bear in mind is that sierra took a massive gamble at the end.

If they won, then mfgs would have been pushed to the limit to make a healthy profit, consumers would have got cheaper boards for a while, and smaller businesses would have been swallowed up or forced into niche markets the second all the giants of e-tailing jumped into competition with sierra (by also flouting the vendor agreements (if sierra were continually getting away with it then why would places like backcountry, the house, evo, porters et al agree to less business - they can take the hit for customers just as well as sierra can im fairly sure).

If they lost then well... things got more expensive for some customers (international buyers exploiting the loopholes or trying to flout the regulations), product is becoming regulated by the manufacturers including just how much they need to make a year to be profitable whilst keeping prices competitive; and small businesses are still able to offer you a deal almost in the same ballpark as a massive e-tailer without actually having to take a loss to sell you a board.

From a personal short term international customer standpoint, i know which one i like best.
And from a long term industry standpoint, i know which one i like best.

Its both good and bad that the sierra gamble didnt pay off. But the consequences of that risk right now are most heavily felt by TruSnow who face tighter regulation as a consequence of their former company being pretty much responsible for most of the current environment. They took on a manufacturing giant and lost. Ergo, that manufacturing giant gets to call the shots on retailers and distributors (and it gets to call a hell of a lot of shots on what TruSnow gets to do with its product if it expects to see any more for next year).

So dont hate :) They still want to give you the best deal they can, but if youre an international, yeah, the collapse of sierra hit us pretty hard and will continue to reverberate for a few years yet as the industry gets its house/inventory back in order. Then maybe we might see the same kind of arrogance from burton/k2 trying to dictate the market and a smaller independent label hungry to get itself a reputation as a global brand using vendors like TruSnow to get its product out and steal some custom with a brilliant new deck.

Take endeavor.

Endeavor in korea is priced at almost half the price of a burton custom in korea. They might be great boards, they might be crap boards, i honestly dont know, but here's what i noticed: they are EVERYWHERE. They're in all the shops, they're on the slopes (and in a country that is very much rental only) and they're offering a price point that's awesome for the korean market. Within a couple of years they might even become one of the dominant lines in korea forcing others to bring their prices down from the $900US (for a $500 board in the US), to something a little cheaper.

i keep getting this msg but it doesn't tell me what item it is. You have items in your cart that cannot be shipped internationally. Please refer to our international shipping rules for details.

Who is Borat?

Can I buy burton clothing on your sites or not?

Almost nothing can be shipped overseas...

I would suggest find friends in US and ask them too ship your purchases whereever you want)

Hmmmmmmmm, now let me see - that list can be narrowed down:

Popular snowboard brands worth buying: ummmmmm, Head, Nitro, Palmer, Santa Cruz, Sapient, Rome, Stepchild. None of the major players.

Popular snowboard outerwear brands worth buying: ummmmmm, Airblaster, Sessions. None of the major players.

Popular snowboard accessory brands worth buying: ummmmmm, Bakoda, Celtek, Dragon, Neff, Skullcandy, Smartwool, Smith, Superfeet. None of the major players.

There may be a few more worth mentioning, but not many. When you boil it down, the list is not exactly extensive.

Yes not much worth shipping overseas. You can't even get much of the stuff here in New Zealand that they will not ship here so I don't see how that helps anyone. What is here is overpriced.

That would be a helpful feature eh..

I want to buy the Sierra Stunt with the rome s90 snowboard bindings. Is it possible to ship this to the Netherlands, cause there are so many brands that can't shipped internationally... So i just wanted to make sure before i buy it

I regret to inform our TruSnow Members that Rome Products can no longer be shipped out of the U.S.

Hi, do you shipp to Czech republic??? I`d like to buy some shoes. Thanks for reply.

Good afternoon!
Dear Sirs I have only one question:) Will you ship to Russia?

Hello, you can send a snowboard to Russia in Tomsk if I buy from you online by credit card visa or master card?

it would probably best if you contact customer service to try to work out the details, as it sounds like it might be a bit complicated.
