I have been asked for a price for 10 mugs to send to France.

I am guessing that it will be about 4kg ish.
Has anybody got any suggestions for a good (& cheap) way of sending them...parcelforce want both my arms and my right leg too!

Thanks

have a look at parcel2go
they always seem to be good at uk prices as they deal with all the couriers and search the best price

I was having similar issues with posting to the US. I run a sort of small transatalanic business with a partner over there. Anyway, I decided to cut my losses and actually relocate to the US. RM are just about to raise prices again and I don't fancy being in the UK when that happens.
