Shipping Fedex/UPS Internationally Experience Needed!

General

Hey Guys,

Looking to ship a small box with some cards using either Fedex or UPS. Anyone have a general idea of the usual cost of shipping with them over seas is?

I’d be shipping it to France in a 8x6x4 box weighing 1lb.

Thanks!

Just use USPS.
As someone living in Europe, receiving a package by FedEx/UPS is a crime. Since FedEx and UPS not having really big footprints in Europe, their delivery is either delayed (truck has to come from far) or handled by a company that is doing subcontracting for FedEx/UPS. The number of times I see a UPS truck in my town a year I can count on one hand. FedEx, I haven’t seen those for a decade.

Well I normally would, but the buyer requested it be shipped using Fedex or UPS, and is located in France

All the web sites should have calculators.

Yeah tried that… only issue is the quote told me over $100 for it, and that was for the slowest service.

USPS use parcel force when hitting the UK, may aswell bend over to be honest. Based on what Ive seen parcel force will rinse your gran for her pension.
Also I walked past a UPS van about 40mins ago, its safe to say I got out my Bane mask

From US; USPS
Japan; EMS but that will always flag up on customs

Probably in the 100.00 range which is up to the buyer.
