    Dear OF members,

    my apologies if I didn't search well enough but I haven't found recent information.
    Can someone tell me what is the cheapest way to ship something to Europe from the US?
    Is USPS with 34$ the cheapest way?

    Thanks in advance!

    I just shipped to the Netherlands. Cost was $ 29.00 registered mail. You have to be careful when estimating using the USPS web site. The basic cost to ship was $15.00 (1st class). What was unclear to me was that sending Registered was actually a $14.00 additional cost. Bringing the total to $29.00

    FedEx is the only way to go. Most trustworthy.

    Thanks.
    For watches, yes. But I want to buy a "cheap" watch box and I do not want to spend more money for shipping than for the box.

    May be I am not looking correctly but I don't find shipping from the US?!

    USPS is the cheapest and if the item you'll receive get in an envelope you can get it without custom fees.
    If it will be shipped as a small package you'll also pay customers fees..

    I use DHL or Fed-ex and if they dont offer shipping to Europe i use a service call shop and ship by Aramex. its fast cheap and reliable. (its cheap for small products i.e watches. as they charge according to the weight)

    Thanks. That is interesting. But am I right that except for the Czech Republic they do not ship to the EU?
