Hi @lesslandfillcharity You can access the US Postal website at USPS.com or any other carrier in the world from the UK and get a pretty good estimate of the cost if you have an idea of the dimensions and weight of the package. But I add to the cautions that you have already received that if the seller hasn't already figured out for themselves how to ship internationally, you don't want to be the one to try to teach them. Good luck!

@lesslandfillcharity < confused with the cost for shipping a subwoofer from Tennessee,USA to the UK > As the salesman told the potential buyer who asked the price of a yacht, "If you have to ask, you can't afford it." LOL. If the seller has listed the weight/dimensions correctly, and if the seller will ship to the UK, you can get an idea. Find the shipping section on the listing, and click the See Details link. There, you can choose your location and find what you'll be charged for shipping. I was going to get a possible ball park amount for you but I could not find a listing where they would ship a subwoofer to the United Kingdom. Not a one. I didn't keep count, but I must have looked at two dozen listings.

Hi @lesslandfillcharity

The seller will need to turn International shipping on or opt in to eBay International Shipping and provide accurate weight and box size for shipment on the listing.

I would be leery of a Seller who is not familiar with shipping in general let alone trying to send a package internationally outside of eBay's normal International shipping options.

If they come here and ask about it that is basically the advice they will be given.
