What's the best shipping method for sending bag back to BE?

Im in the US, need to send bag back to the UK....never shipped something large overseas before. What's the best way to do it?

Do not FedEx/UPS it-they charge an arm and a leg. I sent something through the USPS and it was MUCH cheaper!

May I ask what you are returning from BE?? I am curious because I want to get a BE bag and this is one of the first threads I've seen of someone actually returning an item from them...what happened??

USPS is the best by the way...i ship to UK and France to family and friends..cheap and gets there!

I sent my flawed bags back via USPS International Priority Mail, insured, with Return Receipt.

I agree. I had to return a brand new bag to Mulberry (in the UK) and good ol' USPS was WAAAAAAY cheaper than DHL or UPS. The others were like 2-3X as much! It was a largish box too.

(yes, I lost out on customs and shipping out to the US

.)

HTH!

Thanks...that helps a lot! Its a large box and Im sure it will still cost a good amount...plus Im awaiting the customs bill (which Im guessing will be pretty high...ouch!).
