My Wife to be is from South Carolina. Shes sending approx 13-15 lbs of xmas gifts to the UK. Does anyone know whats the best delivery service to use. Shes been quoted approx $160-190 by Fedex and UPS. Is there any other ones out there that are cheaper?

Thanks

The only other two natural sugestions are DHL & USPS

USPS? You can calculte costs on their web site.

Best to buy on line in the country you want it delivered to.

There is a company called 'Goin Postal' that ships using all of the major carriers. They can weigh your parcel and give you the best price / discount. Normally they will ship at prices lower than the FEDEX/ UPS prices. There are only about 200 of them around the country so its worth seeing if there is one in your area.

I'm thinking I need to post the Christmas present to Neil's mom soon because it's going to cost a ton. I wonder if I should just bring it with me to Germany in January and post it from there for cheaper lol
