Mail stuffs from US to China?

Question

Is there someone know the cheapest way to mail stuffs(books, clothes) from USA to China. Thanks!!

Answer 1

Books can go book rate if no other items are packed with them.  Also, the post office has a thing called 'sack mail' for international mail which is about half the price of other rates.  You can weigh the stuff you need to send, then go to the post office, tell them exactly where you need to send the things and the wt ( which will be plus the sack!) and ask the approximate amount..then make your decision.

Answer 2

Use the proverbial "slow boat to China".  It really does exist, and "slow" is an understatement.  My parents sent me a package which literally took 7 months to arrive.  It does, however, depend greatly on where in China you are sending it to.  I always use air mail now, but the boat is by far much cheaper.
