Every time I try to find this on the internet it makes me wanna jump off a building naked and land in a pile of rusty scrap metal. I need to know about how much it would cost to ship 4 or 5 cabs to the UK in a padded envelope. Also, is this price the same for anywhere else overseas?

That is interesting. A 2 ounce international first class small letter/packet 1/4" think cost me $6.55 at the post office and $6.20 buying the mailing on ebay. 3 ounce packet jumps to around $8.00. Not sure about insurance as I never have bought it on international mailing. Yes the pricing is the same for all the countries now. Paypal does not over international first class small packet mailing. Only international express and priority mailing which is very expensive. I'll have to look at the USPS site and see where the above figures come from as I mail internationally all the time. One other thing. The UK customs will charge your customer high fees and you might check with your customer on what they what the value listed at.

Depends also on how fast you want to get it there and weight. First class can take quite a while to reach its destination. I ship overseas all the time but use flat rate padded envelopes and boxes so they get there in about a week. But it is more expensive, around $24. On the other hand I am shipping more than the theoretical 4 ounces as well. With the weight I am shipping it would probably cost nearly as much as the flat rate, which is still faster. A small flat rate box is also $23.95.
