Hi Bernhard and List,
for everyone which is interested in it, here are the official charges for packages from Germany to Oversea locations:
Normal letter (max. 20gm and 235 x 125 x 5mm): 1.55 euros ($1.90)
Compact letter (max. 50gm and 235 x 125 x 10mm): 2 euros ($2.46)
Maximum letter up to 50 g: 3 euros ($3.69)
up to 100gm: 4 euros ($4.92)
up to 250gm: 8 euros ($9.84)
Additional costs for registered mail: 2.05 euros ($2.52)It`s my experience that registered mail is a very safe solution. I have sent many, many packages and no package with registered mail has been lost till now. For example: I pay for a 50gm letter (270x200x20mm) from Germany to the US by the registered airmail 6.05 euros (around $ 7.45). And I do not charge for envelopes and packing (mostly incl. Jewelbox). Good packing costs place and weight and the postages are a little bit more expensive. Registered mail will be the first choice for me in future because I send most meteorites on my risk. An insurance isn`t available for packages from Germany to the US. With unregistered mail I don't have any possibility the check the way of my packages.
Mike, how you make such collector frienly prices? $0.99 for the item and $0.85 free shipping?? I think I should read your Ebay Ads more attentively in future. ;-)
Best wishes, Stefan

And what I forgot to say: there are OF COURSE sellers who charge $7 for unregistered mail. Those were the ones I am talking about :-)
