I have a bidder asking if I'll ship to Germany.... My policy is no international shipments, but considering that this item seems to be of interest only to the Germans, I'd like to make an exception. The packaged box weighs less than 2 lbs. and is about 18" X 18" X 9".
I looked at the USPS shipping costs for Germany for a 2 lb. item, and it's confusing for me, since I've never done international shipments. Global Priority Mail? Airmail Parcel Post? Economy Surface Parcel Post? What would be the best way?
Any help would be appreciated... Sorry for creating a thread that's been done *SO* many times before...

I am sorry that I cannot quote your shipping costs to Germany, but I guess they will be less than your thoughts. I ship World Wide by Air Mail for a cost of $3.00

I usually look them up and then offer the choice to the buyers. Keep in mind that often you can use Letter Post which is MUCH cheaper, but you can't insure that way.
They will choose what they prefer, just make it clear how long each choice takes. It should be pretty easy, Germany has always had wonderful buyers for me, never a problem!
