Tried ordering Tyvek's underlayment from Roofing Superstore (England) since others here on the forum have ordered from there... Unfortunately, they have stopped shipping to Sweden due to "costs and damages."
The question then, is there anyone here who has ordered from another company in, for example, Germany/Poland/England? It feels frustrating to have to pay twice as much for roofing felt/windbreaker/vapor barrier here in Sweden...
Finally found the underlay fabric and vapor barrier on eBay in Germany.
Ordered the underlay fabric "Delta maxx plus" and vapor barrier "Isover Vario KM duplex".
Paid 209 EUR for the underlay fabric and 135 EUR for the vapor barrier, which is roughly half the price compared to Sweden.
Found the same underlay fabric for 3600kr and the vapor barrier for about 2000kr, there's some savings to be made...
(Shipping was 17 EUR to the door, nothing to complain about )
Exactly!
I still find it interesting what a difference there is between Sweden and our neighboring countries.
The same material is sold (sometimes under different names) at such completely different prices...
There are savings to be made, but it's not so strange when you consider that the euro was at 11.40 SEK four years ago. Back then, the difference wasn't so big, and it's hard for the Germans to change the price just because the krona goes up. So a significant difference lies in the exchange rate change.
What I do find surprising, however, is the shipping. I get many parts for my English cars directly from England and a complete exhaust system plus 4 brake discs cost 150 SEK in shipping, delivered to the door by UPS. In Sweden, you can hardly send a letter without almost having to deliver it yourself.
