Ok.. so sorry if this topic has been covered but the search feature isn't working for me...

Does anyone know the most cost effective when to ship from America to Korea? My package is about 30 lbs.

Again, apologies if this is covered elsewhere.

For future reference, just use google. Type in what you want to search, then the phrase "site:eslcafe.com" so the search bar would say "shipping stuff to korea site:eslcafe.com" The search function on here sucks, this is a lot easier.

Also, to ship something, use the United States Postal Service. They are the least expensive, and even if you use UPS overnight service, it still takes 3 or 4 days. So don't waste your money with them.

I actually did try the google search process you posted..but to no avail. But thanks for the suggestion all the same.

And thank you for the links and the advice on USPS. Greatly appreciated.

With shipping from America, box size matters as well as weight, so put your stuff in the smallest box possible.

$53.00 for a standard post office box. I have had some weigh about 20 lbs and still same price as one that weighed 10 lbs.
