I have to send a video

tape and two pounds of coffee to Spain from the US. I am going to mail USPS. I don't need it to get there within

a week, but I don't want it to go months either. What types of times and charges will I be looking at?



Also, are customs though there?

you can try global priority.

And since it's gonna be a package of at least 2 pounds it's probably going to be a little more than 20 bucks or

so. with global priority I really don't think it could take more than 2 weeks but then it's overseas...

I dont want to sound like a

smartass but did you simply try calling up the PO?

Do the coffee and video need to be together? There are

special rates for 'media' only packages.

Surreal, the PO is closed, and I

don't have the number anyway.

As for media mail, that takes like three weeks or even longer within the US.

So I am just going to not bother.

J5, Thanks. I hope it is only low 20s. I would definitely be happy with

that. Not sure if it would really get there in two weeks. I should check this out online.
