Purity14 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Depends on the size of the box. 2kilos of feathers can constitute a large box. Also, you didn't say how fast you wanted it there, or if you insured it for more.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil-NA Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I got done over by the post office, got quoted £20ish to send a splitter to Greece, agreed with the buyer the price, sent it and then got a bill for £79.99. I had only taken £70 for the splitter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you didn't say how fast you wanted it there, or if you insured it for more.. Question is, if you dropped a box with 2Kg worth of feathers in it off a building, could it kill someone? H.

Josh Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Question is, if you dropped a box with 2Kg worth of feathers in it off a building, could it kill someone? H. No, too much surface area to gain enough speed to make 'em go 'splat'. edit: unless compressed down into a tiny box, then maybe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samsar Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Try a company called Red Lane International .. £40 for 7kg box to Australia 3 day service .. Used them several times and they been excellent. Last time I used them I went online at 0945hrs confirmed collection by 1000hrs and a DHL bod was at my door by 1020hrs..

Abz Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Question is, if you dropped a box with 2Kg worth of feathers in it off a building, could it kill someone? H. That would depend on the high\level it was dropped from & the type of box used, but yes it could. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
