Just got my bill from Badger Cargo International In Johannesburg SA for my trophies to be shipped to Chicago USA. There has been a few inquiries on rising airline costs as of late. My crate contains dip and pack only for kudu skull, horns and cape, same for wildebeast, sable , gemsbuck and impala. The cubic weight was 86 and the total cost to include air ($899.72), insc (183), transport ($65), agency ($114), and discount ($75) for a total of$1188. Obviously higher than what it used to be. My dip and pack from @SPLITTING IMAGE TAXIDERMY was $1230.
The next set of charges will be from @TROPHY SHIPPERS who have already warned of price increases. The good news is that all companies thus far have maintained excellent communication. For those of you preparing for your first safari this will give you some idea of the added costs. I’ve always said a safari is an adventure that just keeps on charging!!
