Cheap Overseas Freight Costs???

Folk,

I just arranged to send 11.5kg of boat bits and bobs to Spain from Scotland. The cost was £25 including insurance for £250. Transglobal Express does it again at c.£2.20 a kilo. With Easyjet charging €4/kg online and €13/kg at the airport I think that's not a bad deal.

very good to know  I was thinking to ship batteries from UK to Spain last time and it was awful expensive...

Depends who you know in Spain to buy your batteries

Why always buy in the UK ??
On ebay. de for instance you can find all the stuff you want ( most likely for a better price ) and they deliver cheap in Europe.
Same thing goes for Italy in my case , local ebay.it sellers send you the goods nearly for free .
Al it takes is to try and speak , read/write more than one language .

in my case at the time the difference was about 50% in the price ...
