    Parcel delivery to USA

    A forum member from the USA has inquired about some parts I have for sale in my breaking thread.
    I have been informed from a work colleague that Hermes are about the cheapest with Royal Mail being also good depending on the weight.
    Unfortunately the Hermes website is not acknowledging the USA zip code
    A lot of UK forum members ship regularly to the USA so who do you use ?
    My parcel will weigh no more than 4kgs and approx dimensions are 23x33x35cm

    Any input would be greatly appreciated as I have never shipped International before.
    For what this cost me so far I could have bought an S2

          well, if it is CQ/S2 parts, we only got 1700 of that car here and those parts are scarce anymore..... i have had lots of trivial little parts sent to me by Audibits2/Mike.

          if its bumpers we US people want the Euro parts you guys all get as again we didnt get them here.

          spink ships stuff to me with DHL reasonably.

          i ship lots of stuff to the UK to various members on here, and i use whats cheapest which is usually USPS Priority.

              Chris,this place below is good(certainly were when u used to use them).Only down side is that you need to send the items to them first(which may work well for you being down the road)
