|
|
I received a potential offer that I'm debating whether to take or not, but in case I do I've been going over all my documents and reviewing the next steps to take, one being how to send the documents to the school in korea.
I live in atlantic canada (major city with an international airport close by) and would be sending the documents to daegu, and going by FedEx's online rate calculator this would cost me around $150(!).
Is it really that expensive or did I simply mess up on the values I inputed |

I used to ship to Vietnam regularly and it only cost about 18 dollars for 7-8 day service. This was from the post office.
I can't imagine Korea would be more. |

Priority Post or EMS service from Canada Post.
Just as fast.
Trackable.
signature required.
about 1/5th the cost (or less).
First class mail works too (but takes about 7-10 days instead of 4-7) and only costs a few dollars.
