Posting to Isle Of Man

Hi guys,

Just wondering if you know what the cheapest way to post to Isle of man is? I have a very small package that measures about 10 x 10 x 10cms. It weighs about 170g. I tried to post it on parcel2go using the cheapest myhermes option @ £2.34 but they said they don't include that place. Any ideas? Would prefer to have it trackable but don't want to really spend much more. If it is much more, will just go for cheapest royal mail option

    I suspect RM at £2.80 2nd class is going to be the best bet.

    My Hermes send to Isle Of Man for no extra charge. You'd have to go direct on their website and it would be slightly more. £2.78 fully tracked. I have noticed that some buyers on Isle Of Man add Lancashire to their address. I suspect so people are will to send it there. I guess it is off the coast of Lancashire....
