Try shipping from your part of the world to Australia Ron.
And you will never complain again!

Mailing murder!
 
How about a 19 set 3b Mk II control box that was $65 and

needed more than double to mail to UK.

About 4 years ago I advertised some nice trench art for the more

than fair price of $40.00. Surface mail to Australia........$115.00.

And it can only get worse.

Jack, Peter, I've shipped lots of stuff to Australia and never thought it was outragious. I use this firm. https://www.parcel2go.com/

As it happens I'm getting some Norton (Big4) motorcycle parts made for a guy in Oz and a guy in NZ. So I just typed in a sample 5KG parcel 30x30x30cm and they're quoting just over 30 Quid.

I try to avoid buying stuff from the States. Shipping is usually expensive and we can also get hit with 20% extra VAT plus £8 for Parcelforce to collect the VAT:ergh: Ron

For imports from USA or anywhere for that matter, make sure you have the UK Import Tariff written clearly on the customs documentation - that should result with at most 5% duty and no VAT, subject to the item of course.
