Title: European Parcel Rates
Post by: Golfbuddy on 21 December 2007, 21:34:17
What is the best way to send a parcel to mainland Europe. I need to send a parcel for my Mother and I'm being quoted silly money for it. The parcel is under 3kg and ideally I want to pay less than £20.  :y

Thanks for the helpful replies. You know who you are.

Royal Mail are having a laugh at these prices:

If anyone knows a cheaper way to send to the continent I'd appreciate it. By the way, the parcel will contain perishable goods as well so Royal Mail won't touch it anyway.

Cheers

use this:

I used them to send a Nintendo Wii, excellent!

Had it collected the next day, enter the size and weight. Then hover your mouse over the various companys and it shows you the price to deliver  :y
