Must be pretty big and heavy?

I had a box sent QLD to WA recently that would of been 700x500x500 and weighed about 7-8kg via Auspost and that was $70.

Yeah, the surfboard cover is the main culprit as they cube it out with a weight equivalent. 

eg from Aust Post .....  

"Charges for parcels weighing more than 1kg that are square or rectangular in shape are assessed according to their actual weight or cubic weight equivalent, whichever is greater. The cubic weight is the parcel's volume in cubic metres multiplied by 250."

Will give you a call Flangies :)

Methings Im going to need a rethink

Hi Jody,

Do you mind if I ask who you used?   had a similar problem with a dodgy rod I bought off ebay. Pack and Send $55 not including packaging.  Smartsend $18 no account required.   Bloody rod snapped first cast!

Hi Jim, sent via a couple of very nice lads who have an account

The sting is if you are in a hurry, Smartsend sounds not too bad at $18 for 5-6 working days ;)
