How much does it cost to have something shipped to the states from Austrailia? |
Travel Info I was just getting ready to pay for something I won on e-bay and they failed to enter the shipping. Travel Tips check this site for Australia Post prices: www.auspost.com.au There is a postage calculator, and you can estimate weight etc and get a rough idea. with ebay, though, you're also looking at other costs like the packaging, etc, and without having the item in your hands it's hard to say exactly what it weighs. The best way to know the actual price is to ask the seller - it's not a good idea to make a guess and try to do it yourself. Plus there are options of sea mail, air mail, insurance etc. And yes, it may be an expensive lesson! I post things from Aus to the US all the time, and a lot of people are surprised at the cost (I think maybe they forget that it's half the world away!) Source(s): post from Aus to US a lot, am an eBay seller Other Travel Tips Man it is exspensive. I always ask for the shipping price before i bid on an overseas auction. Make sure there is no padding in the price. Also ask whether its airmail or by ship. You just need to contact them and have them send a new invoice. you need to know how big the package is and the weight....check ups.com to get a good estimate.... Depends on the size and weight of whatever it is. Email them to find out what they are charging. |
