I have to log in to check but I think it was $100 in total and it came DHL if I recall....no brokerage nothing. Not sure how it was set up but apparently they must have their own because I never got any additional charges. It was left on my front porch. Now I did order some other stuff through them so it was't 'just' the sand.

edit: I logged in and checked, I ordered 4 x 30 lbs bags of 2mm miniflakes and a bunch of other stuff the cost of the reef flakes was $159.96 but I ordered some other stuff as well so my total bill was almost $1K, shipping in total was $125 for the entire lot. Now, I am not sure if they give discounted pricing based on the size ($) of the order..but I would assume that was what happened with me, I ordered back in 2013.
