anyone ever ship anything internationally?
Posted by LaRon on 7/13 at 9:53 pm
I want to ship a 7 pound box to Germany. How much should I expect shipping to cost and what are the odds the goods get lost/stolen/broken?

Anything you ship overseas will be opened and inspected by customs. Probability of something getting fricked up: ~15% in my experience.

Are you shipping it to an APO or a German addres.

Through FEDEX, UPS, or DHL, you're looking at about 30-40 bucks depending upon dimensions. Chances of it being lost/stolen/broken are no worse than a domestic shipment. If it's to a German addy, it'll go through customs and incur fees (alcohol, tobacco, etc). If it's to an APO, it'll take a little longer, but will be customs free.

Germans.


Should be around $30 -$40, depending on service. You can pay a lot more if you want to rush it.
Go to UPS or FedEx website and they can estimate for you before you ship.

USPS has a flat rate box to anywhere in the world. If it fits, it ships. Like $25.

I ship internationally all the time. If you are shipping by mail, you will just pay postage, declare the value on the slip, and the recipient will pay the tariff. If you ship UPS, FedEx, etc, you will pay the tariff with the postage.
