Everyone thinks its easy and cheap to do.
You have to be careful with furniture if you live in a 'dry area' as Bali is very humid and wood will dry and crack.
Recycled timber furniture is recommended.
Allow what you pay for the furniture and approx. same amount again to get it home.
Dont forget you have sales tax and gst to be added (sales tax is added first then gst calculated on new total).
If going through an agent they usually charge a flat rate per cubic meter plus taxes.
Good luck and just make sure you do your homework or it could work out being a very expensive and stressful experience
