themullet89 Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 Got a question from a bidder from Australia about how much it would be for me to ship an LP from the US. I don't think I've ever shipped to Australia. Anybody have an idea of how much it costs to ship from US to Australia?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psychoriley Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 I always use USPS site. Click calculate postage, pick what country, and put in weight. It then lists all the prices from Next day to First Class. If I recall the cheapest was around $14 and some change. (That's 1st class, no way to track) http://www.usps.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lkkev Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 i wouldn't necessarily use the no idea link as a good guide...i order a lot online (I am in Australia) and find No idea's shipping priced pretty expensive...and very slow...i usually wait up to 6 weeks for items to arrive...which is odd when dischord can charge 10.75 to ship an LP and get it here in 5 days. I would normally expect to pay $11-13 for first, and 2-4 each extra.....i hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spoonbill Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 i think actual shipping costs to ship a ~1 lb mailer with an lp first class international to australia is about $10.76. prices vary by the ounce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psychoriley Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 The $14 I came up with was at 1.3lbs. 1 LP is probably a bit lighter, Also pending on the packing. You definitely want to pack any international packages good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rise3905 Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 it's usually around $12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jramone76 Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 I have shipped to Australia on numerous occasions. A properly packed LP (LP mailer and 2 fillers) usually weighs approx. 1lb 3oz- 1lb 5oz. $12- $14. I'd be interested to know if labels (i.e. Dischord) receive some type of discount for bulk rate, based on the volume they send out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
