Try shipping a 12x12x12 package, 20lbs from NJ to Australia. UPS Air-
$300.00 and several days. Priority US Mail-$98.00and there in about the same
amount of time.
Also, try the postal service over UPS for shipping from England. Royal Mail
much cheaper. Often, less than 1/2
Once in a while you win with UPS, not often. I have shipped quite a bit both
ways, and I prefer the post office at this point.
