  2. I believe it all depends on the weight. I used to just weigh at the SAM machines that has weighing scale and buy postage. You can choose the type of posting ie air, surface. Took 1 week for my package to arrive to the US which is not registered but also 1 week to Brunei and Indonesia with registered post (registered can only be done at Singpost branches). Well, it's all from experience but nothing to the UK. Hehe.

  3. @heavenlygorgeous: yepp, i did do my 'research' there before posting this up.. but as stated those are charges for Letters, Printed Papers And Small Packets.. i was wondering how much it'll cost for small packages.

    @xhilzahx: i wonder if we can mail out small packages to the UK the same way we mail them locally. because speedpost charges seems so high!

  4. Babe, if time is not a concern, perhaps u can just opt for the normal air mail. Just ensure it's securely wrapped up. If you want to ensure that it will safely reach the receiver, maybe u can opt for registered too. Just enquire at the post office. FYI, I've not tried speedpost either. I've posted irregular sized packages overseas with no problems.

  5. @xhilzahx: Normal Air Mail? hmmm.. Registered, definitely.
    I dont think time is a concern, i just need it to arrive safely. It's not a Christmas gift or anything, just a swap.

    Any idea if i can post small boxes via air mail too? as long as i'm withing the weight limit, issit?

  6. You can post anything as long as its not aerosoles, liquids or cash I belive but heck, I usually write it as something else on the customs declaration green tag. LOL. I'm not sure about the weight limit but I'm 100% sure you can post a small or big package even though it's irregular shaped be it in a box or not.
