Heavy item to Belgium?

scottishspendaholic

Hi there,

I've just waited with bated breath for my auction to end of a brand new car radio - for £94 - I'm thrilled BUT...

...the buyer is in Belgium and the radio etc weighs over 2kg. I did offer overseas postage but the buyer did not contact me before bidding to ask about overseas postage - I HATE it when that happens.

So - I can't find anything on the Royal Mail site about posting to Europe for items weighing over 2kg - I'm probably not looking properly but would anyone be able to help me out so I can send an invoice to the winning buyer?

Thank you!

You can get a quote from Parcel Force Worldwide...but I just did a qucik check for you to Belgium, guessing at the dimensions of the package - and it comes out alarmingly expensive, whether tracked or not!!!

If you go to their website you can enter the details in the 'Send a Parcel' section and get an exact quote.

Failing that, would it be possible to split the package into 2? I know you can't split the radio, lol - but maybe the other bits and bobs could go separately to get each package down to below 2kg?

Hope this helps!

2Kg is not that heavy!! Try using the Royal Mail price finder for starters...

Or you could try a courier like Pharos International...
