I have dreamed of going to Bali for years, but kids and men always seem to get in the way.
Through my work I have been given the opportunity to import from Bali and hope to head off in the next few months.
I need to import water features/statues and so on. I have come across quite a few places who will tour me around and show me suppliers however doing the research myself i have found quite a few places which look great and wondered wether i could do it myself? I have been told these guides ask for 15% of your purchase, does anyone know if that is the going rate or if it is negotiable? The company is exbali. I dont want to be ripped off nor do i want to offend any locals. How do you find a "medium" with your haggling without going to far?
I imagine it may be difficult to coordinate the filling and packing of your container without using one of these companies.
Any suggestions/tips would be appreciated.
