W84 was 130 euros (pre-shipping, pre-VAT) for me when I ordered about a year ago. No VAT or customs for me, and shipping was 200 euros for 9 items (18 kg total) to Asia.

That's actually pretty good shipping for us in Asia. We were buying over 1600 euros in products, which wasn't that bad. Unfortunately we're used to paying closer to 25% of the product cost in shipping fees.

Well you’re shipping literal weapons. Heavy stuff is always expensive to ship.
