Thinking of importing a Subie from Japan? Take a look at these before you do...

Some of the 10,000 containers lost in the sea every year.

Not even safe when the ship is docked

And finally, just when it is off the ship.....


Enjoy

Makes ParcelForce look reliable

So forget the Scooby in a lake - how long before we see a Scooby in the sea?

Question
Speaking of "Foam crisps", has anyone else seen the ones actually made of cereal, and you can eat them??

the cerial packing is a bit bland - shame Wotsits don't sell packets of the cheesy salt. One decent sized delivery box would keep you snacking for months

Cool
when I imported mine, I just went for the extra insurance - that if the boat sunk, or the car was damaged it will be covered by insurance.

A email from the desk of paul r

See attached photos
Example of what, NOT to do


Glad i could be of service to the british shipping industry.

Andrew - Would be a bit different scenario for a 22b or S202 wouldn't it?
