Default Glider Re-finishing


Ian K wrote:
Can anyone give a comparison between Glider Service in Slovenia, and
Refinish in Poland?

Costs are within spitting distance, so looking for ease of communication,
quality of finish, follow up service and all those other things that make
you choose a over b.

The transportation cost would the deciding factor.
If it is with RO/RO plus pick up and delivery service,
the cost will be far less to go to Poland. There are no RO/RO
ports in the south. Container service is most likely more to Slovenia
as well.
The Group in Slovenia has a very good reputation.

To ship a container from Montreal to Breamerhaven for example will be
$US 1750.00,
return would be about $US 2750.00, plus Blocking and incidental costs.
Add 25% to get it to Poland and back.
