    Anyone know of any reliable courier company that will send 2kg parcels to Australia for under €75? That's what An Post is quoting, but DHL is asking for €115 :eek: The stuff is going to Brisbane and needs to been a fastish delivery (<4days).

    Not worth it, it'd be €50 there and back on the train! Don't have a car.

    Why send them by AN Post courier?

    Why not send them by An Post Registered Post?
    Regular mail to Oz is very quick, 3 days normally...

    2kg by Registered post is only €35.50..

    Yes, my wife sent a birthday card I think, to one of her family in Melbourne. She got a text 3 days later thanking them for it.
    If stuff is being sent to some remote part it might take longer..
