OK, sorry, you wasn't clear about where you lived. You mentioned NZ in one of your post, so I made a guess... :-) :-) Anywan, maybe Australien Post has some of these "flat-rate" boxes also ? Here is what I found : Express Post International $77.20 20kg Air mail $72.20 20kg Sea mail $37.85 20kg I selected the 2.0-2.5 Kg weight range and destination Sweden, so I guess this is some kind of flat-rate box good for up to 20 Kg. > ...which i thought expensive, Well, it's up to the buyer, not ? :-) Regards, Jan-Erik. cdb wrote: > > :: But why use DHL ? > > Australia Post (where I am ) wanted AU$70, which i thought expensive, > and they don't have boat costs anymore on their website. > > DHL was just the first carrier to pop into my head, though trying to > find the price chart on the Aus site is a feat in determination by > itself.
