I'm going to ask Yvonne what she was quoted for shipping to the U.K for one shirt.
maybe there is a good rate for a light weight, flat envelope?
U.S. to U.K. does seem to be less expensive than to other areas.(But still not exactly cheap)

See? That's less than half of what yours cost. (Although your box was heavy and filled with poop.) I remember it was around $45. Six pound box.
Still got the box somewhere up in the lab.
But I took the poop out of it.
The stuff i sent you was pretty lightweight, to be fair.

This was a guess. It seems like the shipping is only a little more with added weight. There seems to be a base shipping price per it's destination. Frankly, I always send packages the most economical way. No special handling or extra insurance...
I just used this for USPS international calculations

They're very quick to push the standard box which costs a fortune!

First Class international for a T Shirt would be US$13.50 to the UK and, weirdly, US$13.25 to Morocco

Maybe I've been standard boxed?:eek:
That actually seems to be fair enough.

Hat number 2 : 4 points.
Very exciting, i have 3 hats with four points.
Good morning, John.:)
Sorry, my hats seem to have taken over the voting from your t-shirts.
I'll get wifey to vote for them later, when she gets up.


good morning sir, how are you today?

I don't know if it was for the UK, but probably, but Yvonne checked for me back in July and said she was quoted $21 for one shirt overseas so no international shipping. I don't think that's too bad. I would have paid it.

I worked on a weight of 7oz including packaging.

When packing stuff for eBay, I use a heavy duty (previously unused ;) ) rubble bag which is both strong and light and so adds minimal extra weight to the consignment.

7oz is probably on the heavy side for a t shirt package.
