AIRMAIL help please :)

I currently have a few items on eBay which have got much interest from bidders. However, one eBayer has asked if I will ship to New Zealand.
I am completely happy with shipping overseas, but I'm confused as to what to type of postage is cheapest for me, and which courier.
The item, with packaging, will weight a maximum of 700g.
I really don't want to be in a position where I'm over/undercharging on postage!

Thanks.

By small packet, that could mean a box right?

I prefer this guide myself http://www.seajays.org.uk/postage/index.cfm?

On the left hand side it has diagrams relating to the sizing; large letter etc.

Small packet is a system of postage rates and except for very light items is cheaper than the alternative letter rate. Just ask at the PO to send it this way and write "small packet" below the airmail sticker. It can be an envelope or a box it makes no difference.

Never ever use surface mail on ebay as a chargeback can be started within 45 days of payment and most sellers won't let this time limit pass without protecting themselves by starting one, just in case.
