What is the real price for shipping out of the US? - Snowboarding Forum

Hi guys

This is a question mainly for people in the US, how much is it really to send a snowboard internationally over to say Australia? By looking on ebay and other online stores it looks like the prices vary.. some say $150 others say $70, are these rates exclusive to businesses only? are they different for normal consumers like us?

Please share your thoughts and experience....

im not really sure, but most places ship that stuff for free within the states, however im guessing that is not the case for international shipping. I wouldn't doubt a $70 price but maybe the 150 i don't know for sure but since board are kinda large it could be that much

I'm not sure about Alstralia but I live in Canada and I just bought a Capita scaremaster from EvoGear and shipping was 62$. It might be around 80$ or 90$ or maybe a little bit more.

A lot. Online calculators won't give you the real price. Since snowboards are long, they jack up the shipping rates considerably. It cost me about $230 USD to have my board sent over here from the US. (Before you call me a moron, it still worked out cheaper than buying a board of similar quality over here.)
