Posting to Germany

Hi everyone
Have listed a few books on Amazon and have just had a request asking if I can post to Germany and how much the postage would be, I ticked for domestic only, so am just wondering really how would I post to Germany?

Take it to the Post Office and ask for Airmail Europe. No forms to fill out or anything, for prices see https://www.seajays.org.uk/postage0

You can include International postage on your Amazon listings, and post to a buyer in Germany, but bear in mind that unless they are small and light books, after Amazon has taken their cut, the price Amazon sets for postage probably won't be sufficient to cover the real cost.
The real rates are here:

Obviously you can choose where you send, that is entirely up to you, but if ti is a light book and it increases your bidders it seems odd not to give it a go.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Whoops missed that. However on amazon it is usual to list the book again with 'Europe' enabled and at a slightly higher price to cover the additional Postage.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
