Source for 26mm collagen casings, ship to Malaysia

I'm looking for a source for 26mm collagen casings who will ship to Malaysia for a reasonable shipping charge.

It doesn't matter to me where in the world they come from, however I don't want to pay more for shipping than the product costs...

One supplier will only ship UPS worldwide to Malaysia, and that's $120 for a $9 order...

I'm doing product development for a potential customer and he has decided 28mm is too large.

Thanks,

-t

Hi Thewitt,
Have you tried some of the suppliers on the Australian and New Zealand Resources page? Might be worth a shot.

Hi Thewitt,
The biggest problem with UPS, FEDEX and others like them is, you have to have an account with them otherwise your prices are as quoted. Discounts are available of up to 85% or more for account holders.
Using the Postal Service might be the answer although these rip-off merchants have woken up here as well in regard to charging like wounded bulls.
You might also have a problem with Quarantine at your end if all the correct information is not listed on the documentation.
Nowhere must be listed that collagen casings might contain traces of pork skin etc , all bovine skin derived cases must be supplied with a certificate.
I have a sample I can send you but let me first find out from the post office here if that is possible and what labelling they require.
Cheers,
Jan.
