they do. and you can even check out that DHL will charge 60€ for the package will have to be sent as BULKY ...

the fact that it is quite easy and not that expensive to send whole bikes from UK to the rest of Europe or around the world does not mean the same vice versa. try to go to a TNT counter in the Netherlands and have your bike-box sent abroad ... it's not possible there and you have to have an account with a courier like GLS or sth ... you'll get nuts!
... but that is just my experience. everybody has its own ...
If I had the money to buy this I would expect it to be sent insured and really, I mean really really well packed ... I believe that's what the guys are talking about when charging 100€.
