Shipping

Post by myfordcnc »

I'm trying to get a quote to ship to Spain. I keep getting crazy prices. Any body have experience with this. I'm getting rates of anywhere from $80-$200. Any suggestions as to a reasonable service from California to Spain?

What's the weight of the package/size?

First class mail International is cheapest but slowest. Priority mail should be around $55-$65 depending on weight. Tracking is better with priority mail.
If things seem under control, you are just not going fast enough.

if you can keep it under 4lbs it's much cheaper ad it can go first class. If it's over 4lbs it's gonna be expensive. I've split a shipment into 2 just to get the first class shipping. I've found the speed is pretty much the same. Tracking sucks on both but as said above it's better on priority mail

It's a chassis. So I'd say 2 pounds at most with the packaging and box.
