Just for the sake of it I added some from the chinese website, but it seems I am in the same ballpark as djozz is: DHL shipping ripoff until order amount reaches/surpasses 25 pieces/$100 value, at which point a free shipping option appears. I don't really know what sort of shipping service do they hire in such case, maybe djozz can answer this. Djozz?
The tracking number was from chinese EMS. Btw, I got the batteries in two shipments, got the first one within a week, the second package is bouncing around in China without end
From EMS China :

They want $32.50 for shipping when i buy 5 cells… :person_facepalming:
I think that has been mentioned a few times in this thread too… :weary:
Like Djozz has, i would have to order 25 of them to get free shipping.
Mmm, they're in china and seem to be having a deal of shipping issues. I believe they have not done well their homework in this regard and all of you have been gaming their website to get the lowest quotes; hope this serves as incentive for them to offer some sort of inexpensive and/or flat rate shipping options in the near future.
Single XHP70 with two of these in a Convoy S2 package (zener mod FET driver, 16mm DTP MCPCB from MTN and some copper from kiriba-ru) or a triple on a single Aspire INR18350 drowling
Too bad the shipping to The Netherlands is ridiculous…
