I'm trying to ship some parts to Sydney Australia. Window trim for a type 34. I'm in So Cal. All the prices I get are $400 - $700. UPS, Fed Ex and DHL. Any ideas?? Thanks Karl

Is it the dimensions that are doing it? Are you getting into a size category that takes special handling?

I shipped all kinds of stuff to/from New Zealand when I was down there, and even a small palette didn't cost that much...

Did you try USPS?
