Hi all you americans. It is my birthday on saturday! the 14th of February  :cake: so I decided to buy myself a bear on ebay.
I just wanted to ask if anyone could tell me what the best way of getting the bear sent. e.e postage prices!
The lady wants to charge me $25 and I thought that was a little on the expensive side.
the bear is 6 inches
it is coming from Chino CA which I think is California

Thanks for any help

Hugs
Tracey

I sent a 7"  teddy from Arizona to Australia a couple months ago the cost was about $23.00 priority mail, which is the only mail that the US post office will insure.  I just sent one to the UK cost me $39.00.  I think she is probably right on

There are new postage rates and boy are they expensive! I just sent a larger (14") dog to Australia and it was $48.00. So I too think the $25.00 is probably correct.

If they are willing to send it without insurance they can send it by First Class International and it will be much cheaper - $5 or $6 range depending on the weight.

That seems about right, I sent one today from Colorado to the UK and it was $34.00, it is expensive for sure!

Thanks Tami and Edie
I went with the $25 postage. Maybe it will get here for my birthday on the 14th

Hugs
to you all
