How to buy from Costco in France

No. Costco delivers only within the United States, so iWishBag buys it for you and ships it to France. Transit is 5-9 days after dispatch from our United States warehouse. No delivered order on this route yet: your quote adds item price, freight by weight, duty and tax into one EUR total before you pay.
