My husband an I bought a significant amount of furniture while in Bali - and we too had to pay many hidden charges when our furniture arrived in San Diego. Luckily most of our stuff arrived in one piece -and it looks wonderful. One warning. Do make sure that all of your stuff has been fumigated for termites and post-powder beetles. Our hutch has power-post beetles - and there goes another $200 buck to get rid of them!
