Folks, I'm thinking of going the same way as Big Danny.

Anyone interested in putting in an order and splitting shipping?

I've no use for 8lbs (3.6kg) of hops but I could use about 1-1.5kg.

Let me know if you are interested and we can try put together an order.

(Sorry for hijacking your thread Danny)

Hey Mick. Yeah I'd be interested in ordering a kilo or so. Where are you thinking of ordering from? Yakima look good.

That's where I was thinking myself

Great, Yakima seem the business alright! We shouldn't have a problem getting one or two more on board. Should we start a new thread?

Up to 4 Pounds (1.6 Kg) = $33 Padded Envelope
Up to 8 Pounds (4.5 Kg) = $66 Medium Box
Up to 16 Pounds (8.1Kg) = $86 Large Box

You need to be basically filling the max to make it worthwhile.

Cheers Qs. Is your conversion a little off? I asked Uncle Google and he told me that 8lbs = 3.6kg.

Copy and pasted from their site.

I worked out that it was close enough to the prices here, although some of the hard to get hops are a little cheaper here now so you may be paying a euro or two extra per 100g depending on what you buy. They've got a lot of hops you can get here though and so far I've found them very fresh.

Also worth noting they wont ship leaf, just pellets.

Thanks folks, maybe they are adding in the weight of the packaging too.
