Hi,

I have my Pompino for sale on Ebay, and have offered to send anywhere in the world.

I have had a request for cost to send to both Denmark and USA. Any reccomendations?

TIA

Gareth

    DHL.

    pack it up as small as posible as all carriers have size restrictions.

    expect cost of about £100 to Denmark.

    I had a frame shipped over form the states via UPS - it cost me about £120 but it was EXTREMELY well packed in the sturdiest cardbaord box I ever saw... Its probably worth you chatting to three or four different companies before you decide (avoid the ones that say "Bikes? We don't do many of those....") :wink:

    Parcelfarce is usually cheaper than UPS or FedEx for big stuff.

    No idea why...

    I had problems with Parcel force. Try TNT.

    Why not get a cheap flight for a couple of days in Denmark and pocket the postage?
