I have a package to post to Quebec,dimensions are roughly 26x21x20(lxwxh) and 4.0kg. An Post is coming up with a price of €50.50. Any cheaper options ? ;D
Try https://www.parcel2go.com/ie/ theres Super Economy (4+ Day Delivery) options that come under €50 but not by much.
I decided to split the package down and send one this week and one next week. That way i can keep both under 2kg which seems to be the critical limit. ;D
Not sure about weight but when we send stuff to my sister in Toronto we use the large premade boxes and an post charge the same for 2 possibly 3 of them taped together

Interesting. I do know that as soon as you go above 2kg postage shoots up greatly. Once its in a box its classed as a parcel and it all goes by weight.
Hope there's no liquid in it :P
AnPost and their third degree about any liquids and shaking every parcel >:D
Sent liquid yeast vile to a lad in the UK. Told an post they were sweets ;)

Was some sweets in it too but had to take them out to cut down on weight. ;)

They fairly give me the third degree in my local PO anytime i post outside Eire,i must look awful dodgy :-[
I was living in Vancouver a few years back and received a package labeled as candy & snacks (there was some) but most of the weight was pork sausages, puddings etc :P
