Postage costs in UK
« on: February 28, 2013, 05:06:18 PM »
Hello,

Does anyone have experience with sending Amigas to Europe? I'm trying to find a sensible price, the PO quoted £122 to send an a1200 magic pack to Europe which seems ridiculous to me. (tracked with £200 value)
Anyone got a cheaper service they've used and had no problems with?

Thanks

The sticking point seems to be the size of the package, not the weight. TNT quoted over £300 for 3 day delivery which is ludicrous.

Its a standard a1200 magic pack box, in a slightly bigger amazon cardboard packing box.
No bigger or heavier than the average 24" tft monitor packed in its packaging.

Hello,

Thanks all for help, still getting some freaky quotes but i got a few that actually make sense.

UK to Serbia is £65.11 with £150 value cover
UK to Hungary is £32.39 with £150 value cover

That's for estimated 2-4 day delivery.
