Shipping from Oz?

[Turbo T]

Has anyone found a good system or supplier who will ship from Oz for reasonable money? The few shipping quotes I have had are just silly money.

I shipped a 20' container from Oz, with a houseload of furniture, etc and my VY2 Clubsport in it. Cost about A$2500 ( 1100 squid at the time) Company was Ansett Wridgeways.

Depends what you are shipping.

Any stuff Ive had via Fedex or AustPost, I thought was very reasonable.

Try posting stuff abroad from the UK, then you will see what a rip off is.

If you are shipping a car or a container... give Seaways a go, they were pretty reasonable.

It's only for small bits unfortunately. I suppose I have been spoilt by the cheap shipping from the US.

Are they heavy items? What is the price when you convert it to pounds?
Exhausts would be heavy as would brake discs.
Auspost has standard postal charges so that can give you a clue as to how much stuff is.

£400 for a set of wheels
£500 for an exhaust
