Well you have picked terribly heavy things there haven't you? I have no idea, maybe 50quid? Plus duty.

sanielle · 20/08/2010 17:32

Very close TE. Pozzled I was expecting to pay about 20.. Going to have to do some rewrapping... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Ah too slow.

How much did you think it'd be?

FiveGoMadInDorset · 20/08/2010 17:33

This happened to me whne I was sending a big bag of clothes to my cousin in Germany, I know it sounds weird but can you slpit them up into spearate parcels, that is what I did 2KG max and it was so much cheaper.

sanielle · 20/08/2010 17:33

Was only 2.5 kilos... you better not be disagreeing with me ruddynorah. I've already said no one should!

That is pretty steep, for a boat! I can't imagine they're taking up sooo much space they need their own berth?!

How much was an alternative air-freighter?

sanielle · 20/08/2010 17:34

I am going to do just that 5goMad... but i'd wrapped it all up in shiny purple paper.. and drew alittle american flag on the label.

Maybe cheaper to find a US company that sells those things send them gift wrapped to your friends. Too late now though.

I did expect it to be a lot. I do a fair bit of ebaying you see.

sanielle · 20/08/2010 17:39

Not too late ruddy.. I wasn't about to pay it. Took it all home to indivdually wrap. Might have a go at sending it your way though as a present. Good idea.
