I've been asked about this before here.
So, I've just put in a big Old Navy/Gap order for the sister. Won't come for at least a week.

I'll keep track of the process here and what the costs are and whatnot.

It's a big order and cotton is heavy, so shipping costs might be high. I'll weight it all. Might be two packages. We'll see.

Any inquiries welcome. From non-pricks only. Ha.
 
The last of these arrived today. They shipped separately.
I was waiting on the last item, the rest has been here since Wednesday.

All items get debagged from what they were shipped in and put in a new box

I wore docs to work today. Dead cool.

All packed nice and tight. But not too tight.

Each individual tag from the items is removed and put in an envelope and sent with all the shipping notices and sent under separate cover. This means there is nothing in the package that identifies its value to Revenue.

Andrew was very helpful. He knew that Ireland and Northern Ireland were totally different countries.

He said this with the wary air of someone who was not going to get caught on that one again.
 
Cost.
This was a heavy package 8lbs 10oz and the cost was $65.15 which included insurance to a value of $89.71.
When I checked the US Mail website this would have cost $56.68 for "online" but I don't know how to do that. I guess it's if you buy your postage online. Maybe print out the thing. Dunno.

I'm going to look at some rates now

they were some pretty cheap clothes though
I get 40% off Old Navy/Gap at certain times of year and there's also extra discounts online that I used. Those items all ended up being about half price.
But Old Navy is not expensive ever, especially for kids stuff.
 
On this topic, can you do me a small favour? Look up an item on ebay and see how much postage is within the US for it? I'm being quoted €23 which seems excessive given that its a poster selling for €3.50.
I dunno how to look that up.
What weight and dimension is it?
$23 sounds more like something UPS or FedEx would charge

You should be able to search by item number- 271987967932.
I imagine the weight is negligible, dimensions are 25.5 x 38 inches with postage by priority mail 1st class in a rolled tube (that'll presumably bulk up the weight but still...).

Oh, I get you.

Just checked. Ebay wants $5.95 to ship to me here.

Item (1) $3.94
Shipping $5.95
Order total $9.89
