we buy silver from the same place every year and is great quality and has some nice things. It is called Yulia Silver and is located in BunkungSari street (kuta) on the same side as Ramayana and Kuta Beach Club. About 300 mtrs up from Ramayana on the corner. It is a little white shop next to a clothes shop. We know the family personally now from going so often and they are so nice with reasonable prices. Shipping - we organise a shopping tour with a company at Swansea it is $45 and this is paid before you go. Kai who takes you on your shopping trip,lives in Bali will call you the day before your trip (as you also decide the day you want before you go) and organise a pick up time. She is the nicest lady and very helpful knows her products and shipping inside out. On the day she picks you up and you tell her what stuff you want to buy and she takes you around to all the shops. We pay in Rupiah to the shop on the day that we purchase. Kai organises the shipping and decides how much shipping you will pay as she packs the container ready to come back to Australia. We pay $380 AUD a cubic metre and this price is decided by the company in Australia not Kai. (It is a pay what space you use basis) I have all her details if you like and i can email them to you. The goods are shipped back to Aust to the shop at Swansea where you pick it up once delivered. The Aussie shop will call you a couple of weeks before they expect the delivery and that is when you pay your shipping. Kai will have previoulsy advised what you pay in shipping also so you know before you get the bill. Would definitly recommend her a great day and beautiful quality goods. HOpe this helps!
