Shipping costs

[GosHawk[501st]]

Hey all,

 

Since I have been trying to sell some of my things. I've been contacted by a few people in Australia, I usualy try to ship fedex but their shipping is close to $70. USPS is about $40 for the 6-10 day delivery. These shipping costs are really high and lost a sale due to it.

 

Does anyone know a cheaper way of sending packages over seas?

USPS International If your in the states.....

u could try EMS they do work with AU and from here (Bolivia) its around 30 bucks for 8-10 day.....

Other then that its the normal international postage plus having them sign for the package.

it really depends on were u live, i would go to your post office and have a talk about prices. u could also try a smaller shipping firm.

One example i can give u is some Office rank bars i got 2-3 yr ago, inicially the guy check ups for Bolivia and the shipping was more then the bars. i ask him if he could/mind sending it USPS International or first class internatinal ( or some thing like that) he check and the shipping price was like 5-8 buck!!!!!! granded it took 20-25 days but hey. it really come down to if they want it fast or like RIGHT NOW!!!!

the quicker more $$$$$ now if money is no option its FedEx,ups,DHL over night express ( 24-36 hr world wide!!!!)

The regular old postal service works just fine. Much better rates. They have insurance options. I always choose postal service over any other service.

Yes Can-Post is not too bad, and U.S.P.S is about the same, but I do find the US post more helpfull then Can Post. And YES I have lost stuff, and money!, with Can Post. I say if it need's to be there fast, UPS is the best for fast, I send anything from Can to US I'll use them first, But Can Post if just in Canada.
