How good are vitumob? Secondly, how do the prices range across the board (sample 10kg package across Salihiya, Salabed, Kentex, Savostore,Vitumob)? I've read a lot of such questions on the list but there really doesn't seem to be a consensus on who the best shipper(?) is.

I have checked with vitumob and savostore, the quotes came with duty and other taxes hence why I was asking if KAS and Salabed charge any other hidden costs. On 5 Jul 2016 16:54, "Peter Karunyu via skunkworks" < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:
Sorry I forgot to update this post sooner...
@ Amarjit and @Martin, with the quotes above from Kenya Air Cargo and Salabed Cargo, the prices indicated is all that you pay. We were not told of any other costs once the goods get here.
However, I happened to come across https://vitumob.com/, requested a quotation, got an invoice which had additional (on top of the cost of purchase) charges like:
- Customs and Import Fees - Shipping and Handling - VAT

A friend and I happen to be shipping stuff from US weighing 14.7kg or 33lbs, and we requested for quotes from two companies; Kenya Air Cargo and Salabed (fredrick@salabed.co.uk)
Salabed Cargo $5.99 per pound plus $20 handling fees. By sea $3.99 per pound plus $20
Kenya Air Cargo $9.99 per kilo, $35 handling fee
Salabed (note calculation is in lbs): ((33*5.99)+20)*103 = Kshs. 22,420
KAG (note calculation is in kilos) ((14.97*9.99)+35)*103 = Kshs. 19,008

True, Poor web configuration. Add prefix www......as advised by Haggai.
However, It's worth noting that Salihiya have a threshold fee of 10kg*rate.
