FelinFach ships overseas at subsidised rates and has shipped goods to over twenty countries on almost every continent on the planet. These countries range from Norway and Alaska in the North to the Falklands and New Zealand in the South.
Currently, a significant amount of FelinFach's sales are international and they are mostly going to the USA and Canada. Lately and for the first time, FelinFach has shipped a parcel to a new customer in the state of Alaska in the USA and to the country of Greece. Perhaps some of the more interesting or unusual places that have received FelinFach parcels would include, the Falkland Islands, the Welsh settlements of Patagonia (Argentina) in South America and Dubai. We were informed that our blanket is being used as a wall hanging in Dubai as it is too hot there to put on a bed!
Apart from our new customers in Alaska and Greece, FelinFach has added the country of China to it automatic shipping calculator. There are now approx. sixty countries in the automatic shipping calculator. Anybody in a country that is not in the automatic shipping calculator and wishing to purchase an item from FelinFach currently must ask for a customised quote. We are adding new countries to the shipping calculator to make this a more streamlined process.
