Totally boring question about shipping. Sorry.

If anyone knows how to ship a board from the US to the UK for a reasonable amount of money then please let me know.

I dont know what reasonable is for you but i shipped stuff to South africa through eternal snow and buysnow and they were both very reasonable shipping costs buysnow had more selection but shipping was a bit more expensive. Eternal is 125 dollars for a board bindings and boots wich for me was very good since i managed to buy all my gear for the same price as just a board here.

So check those shops out otherwise ther is something called my us which u can use to ship your stuff to yourself but not sure of prices and how it works?
Hope that helps

Ship to someone you know in the US have them then ship to the UK under the guise it's a gift.

Or, use a freight forwarding company.
