Thread Name: BS: Does the Irish Mail System have Media rates
Subject: RE: BS: Does the Irish Mail System have Media rates

Too bad about the M-bags in the US. A while back, I got a big mail sack of school song books delivered from US to Canada (the bag was taken back by the postman) for a very low price. Not possible for some time, now.

See my thread now running about the elimination of surface mail to Canada by the US. If I can't find the books in Canada, I now order from UK. $10-12 (roughly) to ship a $5 book to Canada from US is too much.

Even DVDs and CDs ship more cheaply from UK than from U.S.
