Thanks. I know it is strange but I am trying to use the web to assertain the lowest and best shipping prices fr a 2# box. The way it is done is by zipcodes in the US and I see that international codes are 6 digit alpha/numeric. FedEx didn't accept that info so I am talking to them and I will try UPS tonight. The good ol' mail gets everywhere though.

MERCY ME shipping overseas is EXPENSIVE please know that going in. buy maas quantities because the shipping charges are killer by fedex or ups.For a 2# box sent to all of you above,you would pay from $40-$55 for it cheapest way. I will check with the U.S.Postal service tommorow.Stock up when you place your orders.:Q

Hey Dantoo, good to see a fellow Aussie in here :)

Hmm, that reminds me we saw a team of NT rugby players at a night club on wednesday night, and later coming out of a pizza place a about 12:30am, needless to say my friends pointed out that they where fat enought already (out a moving car's window so they couldn't catch us:))

Hmm another useless fact ;)

dantoo, tripleshot - thats the rate calculator i use, and its much cheaper than elseanything i've seen - less than $10 for a 2lb box to the UK

i've said it before, and i'll say it again :) usps is the only way to fly :) - thay managed not break my processors too, so i imagine we can trust them with tee's :)

The point is I know about what things cost shipped in the U.S. There have been questions about how I would ship over seas.I have narrrowed the choice based on a 2# package to all parts of the globe and That way I know who to talk to in my neighborhood to handle shipping for me,both domestic and foreign.
If someone in Australia ordered a $20.00 shirt and it cost him $50.00 to get it there,I am sure that would impact his decision.We all have to make informed decisions or we fall prey to deception and thievery,charecteristics I don't care to have my name assoiciated with.
