Be careful doing that. Some countries do not allow insurance or
set a low value for insurance on Priority Mail shipments. That
means high value shipments (in some cases more than $200) must be
sent Priority Mail Express (EMS) or one of the couriers in order
to be protected.
International shipping is a snake pit ... not all countries are
as reliable, safe and ethical as the US or Canada.

Hi Mike,
They have been high for some time but you can easily check it yourself if
you know the sender's zip code. Just go to the USPS web site and choose
"Calculate a Price" from the "Quick Tools" pull down menu. There are several
mailing options each with certain limitations.

When did the International USPS shipping rates go out the roof ???
I just ordered a noise blanker for my K2 (~$USD60 ) and the cheapest
shipping to Canada via USPS came up as $USD38 !
Yikes … that almost doubles the cost ! I don’t remember the rates being
this bad the last time I ordered an add-on to my K2 .. did something
change recently with
US Post ?
