What it cost US to ship to other countries. A step by step guide.

Recommended Posts

Just figured I would post this as an easy reference for people outside the US who would like to know what it would cost to get an item shipped to them. I know even in the US I check and make sure people are not charging me $20 to ship something that cost $5.

 

 

If you go to this link:

 

http://postcalc.usps.com/

 

1. select the country in the drop down box you want item shipped to.

 

2. enter in a value

 

3. I generally leave it where it is it doesn't matter.

 

4. enter the package size you desire (enter the shape one) the flat rates will be listed anyhow.

 

5. enter weight (anything over x.1 lbs gets rounded up to the next lb anyhow if it's over 3lbs so just keep that in mind) so a 3.1lb package is same cost a 4.0 package. So yes that ounce matters.

 

click continue.

 

click on the blue line that says "click to view these mailing options" it will open up cheaper options.

 

*if additional items are needed you can click "customs forms and extra services".*

I just wanted to add that on ebay, charging someone $20 when it only costs $5 to ship is against ebay policy and you can report the seller for avoiding fees.
