Does it cost more to post to Ireland?

[Bubbaloo]

I've just sold a pair of curtains and the buyer is asking how much the shipping to Ireland will be.Probably a dumb question but is it the same as the UK?
TIA

I suspect so, letters cost more. The Royal Mail website ought to be able to give you a good idea of cost though, if you know the weight.

AFAIK Norhern Ireland is the same, Eire is a different rate.

Look on Royal mail website. So far price hasn't been much different when i have posted to there.

Thanks but I don't know the weight.

Idris-She lives in Dublin,if that helps.Geography isn't one of my stronger points.

Have you got kitchen scales? Just weigh them on there for a rough idea. Thats all i do.

Good idea-I'm off to the kitchen now.

They were 3lb in weight-does anyone know how many grams that is please?.

Idris is right. Posting to NI is the same as to anywhere else in UK, but to Eire will cost the same as posting to France etc.

I'm in NI and it's the same as UK.

They weigh about 6,600 grams.

And Dublin is in Eire .

lol I hadn't read it was Dublin

that would be 1.36kg

I make it 1360g ???

Sorry - did calculation the wrong way .

My geography is correct though I hope .

2.2lb is the same as 1000g

so 3.3 is roughly around 1,500

Thanks everyone-off to look on Royal Mail's site.

Try that again and we will say 1500g to accomodate packaging.
