Cheapest way to post US to UK?

damino

I want something posted from
Clearwater, FL 33762
To
some postcode in london like E1 1AF

It's worth about $20

It is in an envelope 20" by 20" by 20"
Or maybe 15" by 9"

I don't really want it bent.

It should be < 1KG. Maybe 200g

I guess UPS and Fedex are options.. The woman at UPS said $200 or $400 depending on whether the sender pays or the receiver pays. She must be mad.

What are my options?

Have you planted and watered it well?

20 x 20 x 20 is a cube not an envelope.

This is the greenfingers section. Do you have a growing issue?

damino

ah I meant 20*20.

I had no idea what green fingers meant. didn't know it meant plants. thought it was some miscellaneous section about money and maybe being tight!

nothing to do with growing.

where should I be asking?

cjb02

a board Gnome will be along shortly to move your post to some where appropriate.

Having never lived in the US I am not an expert on this, but I would be pretty confident that for a package weighing roughly 200g and worth only $20 an ordinary airmail service from the US Postal Service would be likely to be much, much cheaper than using a courier like UPS or Fedex.
