I asked
NTTM usually does pallet shipping only, to your location.
Price depends on order.

Though I was in there today and there was a pile of boxes labeled for individual shipment via Fedex to Europe...

Bump. It's that time of year again.
Small people talk about other people.
Average people talk about things
BIG PEOPLE TALK ABOUT IDEAS.

not shankys but just an idea of other stores
https://www.sifreiorhachaim.co.il/catalognew/

Cost of Seforim. can be half or less what it costs in the US.
(except stuff printed in the US)
Even paying for shipping should be cheaper in most cases than buying in the US.
Example Yefe-Nof is selling the Yerushalmi (מאורי אור) for 350 shekel (for shvua hasefer, current exchange rate is about 3.5 making $100 before shipping, a few years ago I saw it in NY being sold for $200, probaly being by now it's more then that. Meaning if you buy three of them ($300), ship to America (small sets low shipping cost) and sell 2 for 180 each ($360) you end up with a free set plus profit.

From experience Oz vHadar stuff is about the same price, would be worth though if you need to fill up a shankys order.
Frankel Rambam is the same or cheaper in America
