    Hi,

    I am putting two old Alpha computer servers on eBay, and would like to give the option of postage From Dublin to the UK and mainland europe, most probably Germany / France / Italy, as well as in Ireland and the USA. The servers weigh 16kg.

    Anyone know of a courier company that could satisfy these requires at a reasonable cost? I have quotes from TNT, DHL, UPS and they are all around €400 for Europe and the US. How can this be when Amazon can deliver for free?????

    The reason Amazon ships for so cheap is that they built their own distribution network.

    Did you check with a broker like parcel2go?
