I just found a cheaper,faster and easier way to ship overseas.
Pos Malaysia has introduced a new product called flexipack since January 2014. I just knew yesterday quite by accident when I was browsing their website to find the efficient way to post books to Chrissie and Nina!
I haven't seen the biggest box(XL), but it has the max weight of 2 kg( can post about 8-9 hardbacks). Estimate delivery 6-11 days. RM85 equivalent to GBP16 only(airmail, registered and tracked service included with insurance)!
Of course, it depends on the currency rate. At the moment, GBP1=RM5.30.
Box size L with max weight of 1kg can fit about 3-4 hardbacks. RM55 equivalent to GBP11 only(airmail, registered and tracked service)
Padded envelope size M with max weight of 500g can fit about 1-2 hardbacks. RM35 equivalent to GBP6.6 (airmail, registered and tracked service).
Padded envelope size S with max weight of 250g can fit 1 hardback. RM20 equivalent to GBP3.80(airmail,registered and tracked service).
All the boxes and envelopes get cheaper if ship to Hong Kong and Southeast Asia countries.
