| 1353011 | 2013-09-09 00:42:00 | Hi, as some of you have sent over a tablet or a cellphone - what were the post rates quoted by the company? I'm getting some photo film plastic sleeves as they cannot be obtained here and the plastic ones scratch my film. USA companies tend to charge a min of $50US for this 0.200g thing. Thanks all :) |

| 1353012 | 2013-09-09 01:25:00 | Do they not give differing options? How big is the item? You could look at getting it shipped to YouShop, if the supplier delivers cheap/free within the US. If they're not that big and only 0.2g (that's incredibly light!), YouShops' minimum shipping from the US is NZ$17.25. | inphinity (7274) | ||
| 1353013 | 2013-09-09 01:41:00 | I will look into that cheers - but this is the item. If I put in 90210 zip code, that's all I know from the tv series lol - the post is $3.99US. For NZ it is $50US I think they use UPS Limited Express or something ... That was the cheapest there other option was for FEDEX Intl Priority for about $96US. www.bhphotovideo.com l I think I put down Shipit2 or something at 0.50kg, 20cm x15x15 was quoted at under $10US for airmail 30 days with their calculator online ..... Basically those plastic sleeves you got with your 35mm photo film from the lab but there are like 50x strips of them. Each roll had like 6x diff strips together.... Edit - some shops are crazy. For 1 roll of film I think the cost is a min of $40US a year or so ago, maybe it's now $50US. They only use registered parcel mail. There is another shop I use which post is generally $9US but they don't stock this sleeves I am wanting ... |
