It came to around 5.5k per unit.
Shipping via Aramex SnS Flexi came to 2.6k (2 kg)
Customs came to Rs 800 + Rs 531 (handling charge) (Declared it at 20 USD itself)

I think if you use Planet Express with their Premium Mailbox, order 4 units or so, consolidate as one package, I guess after everything would come to around 5-5.25k per unit.

The issue is the weight and package size, it won't be repackageable either. Even if you get somebody to bring it, considering the size, I don't think they'd be able to get more than one or two units.

we have arrived at approx 4.2k with planet express will get the boxes and every packing removed and get it bubble wrapped simple

@chetansha @kuduku @wakkun @vivek.krishnan @ruiner21 @archie_arch confirm it we can do it I assume.

How so? Planet Express uses volumetric weight right and not actual weight. Volumetric weight is bit more. Unless you get it shipped to some contact in US, re-package it, and re-ship to PlanetExpress without boxes.

Does PlanetExpress do re-packaging by removing boxes? I guess not.

I'm aware that they'd consolidate by removing the product from the shipping box (outer box) and combine multiple products as a single package, however normally such consolidation happens keeping the manufacturer's box if present as-is I would think. I think in the pics you shared also they did something similar.

If as you say they would take out the stuff from the inner manufacturer's box and bubble wrap the main unit and power supply etc, then that's great. Might come as a special request I guess.

I will have an extra unit to sell after a few weeks. My friend is carrying it for me but he threw away the box to reduce luggage space. I will post it on TE classifieds if anybody is interested. Really looking forward to setting up openwrt on this and replacing old routers in the house

@MrGordon @anmolbhard004 What is the weight of the router without any package/papers?
Click to expand...

Will be approx 1.5 kg for the device, power adapter and ethernet cable.

I’m okay either way, whichever is cheaper/faster. @anmolbhard004

Delivery time is 10-15 days, I have placed my order since I wanted a quick delivery.

This is a great price actually, I am suspecting they have not considered the box to be as big and the weight on Amazon.com is also on the lower side. So those interested place the orders soon, as once they start receiving the item in their warehouse, they'd most likely revise the price.

The item is shipped from CA by UPS Ground, so delivery to NY will take 5-7 days. The processing time by Woot (seller on Amazon) is also not that great so yeah would take 10-15 days.
