well then, if $50 is what it is then that is what it shall be.in the UK we know it aint cheap to ship large items from the US to the UK, like you guys know it aint cheap to ship large items from the UK to the US. But like ebay the rules still apply here, the buyer must take responsability for all postage costs. Plus it depends how fast the guy wants his item.

Yes. Correct me if im wrong, but does the UK charge by weight. Where the US charges by size and weight?
Cheapest Method To Ship. - Myersh20 - 03-11-2009
The UK does measure packages by weight all the time when shipping to any country and even shipping within the UK.If the Package measures OVER 90cm in size then it has to go special delivery e.g. Parcel Force or other higher carrier company.

I've dealt with shipping back and forth, and best method through my experience has been USPS.... UPS is pricier and ridiculous.

If you go to USPS they will charge you less, but they will hand your package to the local post office in England (which ive heard is not good at all). If you ship it UPS it gets handed to UPS and they will deliver. All the red tape is taken care by them. So you actually have to make a choice. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":thumbsup:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"thumbsup.gif\" />
