Just tell him "your guitars ready, come and get it."

Shipping Insurance=Heritage
It's an add on price in the policy and used as needed. Normally runs $30-$35. You need all the specifics when requesting the add on.

In that case I would not doubt at all if he expects to pay for shipping.

So, you would pay that much extra for each guitar you shipped?

Who else does that cheaper?

Give your international buyer an option.

Shipping guitars to Taiwan is expensive and if the buyer is a penny pincher there are options.

There's a site called "send my bags" that allows you to send very large or heavy packages cheaply.

I guarantee you properly packed and boxed guitars will cost much more than 100 dollars to ship to Taiwan, AND they charge huge taxes at customs too, so do understand that from your client's point of view. I don't know how much because Taiwanese customs never charged me taxes for luthier stuff, but I think complete instruments are assessed under a different tax code. Also they tax on combined shipping and price, so the lower you can make shipping the lower you can make his tax burdens.
