About Tomas Lindqvist
Shipping-line data, agent-fee calculations, spreadsheet modelling, and monthly price audits.
Tomas Lindqvist covers shipping lines and fee calculations at Kakobuynike, auditing the price tables each month. Advertised delivery windows are compared with what the desk actually records, and departures from those windows are written up. Every parcel sent by the desk has dispatch, first scan, customs entry and delivery timestamps logged, with median and worst-case days reported rather than averages alone. Fee tables are recalculated from paid invoices rather than marketing pages, so timing and cost research each draw on the relevant order material.

How I test
For every parcel the desk sends, Tomas records dispatch, first scan, customs entry and delivery timestamps. Median and worst-case transit days are reported rather than averages alone. Fee tables are recalculated from paid invoices and never from marketing pages.
