Hiya

Has anyone used a shipping company from London to Seoul. The cheapest quote I've found online for a pack (rucksack) and box is �400, which seems extortionate! I could buy a seat on the plane and put my pack next to me for that price!

Cheers

I am doing exactly that right now.

my Kgf found a company called yeil express through some UK korean website, they seem pretty legit, I'm getting really prompt email replys from the girl there, they are sending 5 boxes of our stuff to korea for us, 2 by air and 3 by sea. Based next to heathrow.

Prices are: sea freight, �80 first 30KG box and a further �30 per 30Kg box, air is a bit more but not bank breaking more, I think air limit is 25KG? both are massive boxes though 50x50x50CM (supply your own) I had DHL pick them up from my house and deliver there for me, was no fuss, did that through parcel2go.com

Awesome, thank for that! Smile That's exactly what I was looking for, prices are much better! I'll probably ship my winter stuff so no rush for it to get there!

Thanks again! Very Happy
