- needed in one month so air cargo is the only solution to make the deadline 
- the amount paid for air cargo can be earned back by selling the plates at a high price.]]> 2020-03-05 03:52:48 UTC https://padlet.com/leon_choo1_1/95hmqyfldglq/wish/454825983 tan_der_ern_david https://padlet.com/leon_choo1_1/95hmqyfldglq/wish/454826569 Much cheaper
Customers can wait
Using contextual evidence, we know that the shipping actually only takes 4-5 days, which is even more viable than air freight.

Also, sea travel can affect biomarine life so... screw the majority. Also, though its damn expensive, you can probably sell the shoes for more expensive cos its Charles and Keith. Since its Charles and Keith, why not buy a plane?
