Title: quick airmail / post question
Post by: kdw712 on October 06, 2005, 02:01 AM: i have a couple of small packages to send to USA
brake calipers and levers & both are just over 600grams mark

is Royal Mail small package the cheapest and half decent way to get these across the pond ....... works out about £6.50 each to airmail
is there a cheaper company ?
