I just rececntly shipped some parts to the south coast of the UK. The box was 60"x8"x29". Weight was 70lbs. It exceeded the PO size limit so I had to ship UPS. $400 for shipping and another $50 for ins on $2K. I have no idea what kind of tax or fees he had to pay(if any) to get it out of customs hands. Just by way of FYI.
there is a better way to ship large items overseas.you can go to the port and have them put on a ship alot cheaper.i shipped a convertable top,2 inner fenders,2 fenders and about 200 lbs of other stuff shipped to south africa for 300.00.ocean freight is the cheapest way but it is slow
