Clive Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 I wish to send mutiple packages out of Thailand but have not as yet found any company that offers a cheap enough rate for packages under 1KG. My profit margin is very small-about 700 Baht for lightweight (under 1 KG) which is where the problem lies. As the weight increases and therefore the amount of items purchased the profit margin isn't quite so tight.. The main problem is that I would require a signature at the destination (worldwide) which bumps the price up drastically. Can anyone offer any assistance??????? Thanks-Clive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clive Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 Not sending any packages presently but if I can find a company that makes the situation financially viable I wish to send goods to the USA, UK, Europe etc. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toastwars Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 very difficult to find cheap mailing with signatory recipt, there are also only the big carriers that can provide this service, best option is to post regular mail from here, not too badly priced, and send to a trusted friend or family member to post registered onwards in appropriate country, not much help I am sure but cheapest way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lourens Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Try Thailand Parcel Post service at the Post Office. I sent two parcels to the UAE at about a third of the price of DHL and FedEx. Surface mail took only about 2 weeks to reach destination. Budget Airmail is slightly more expensive but much quicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darknight Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Cheapest first Regular post not trackable EMS trackable UPS TNT DHL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 I'am not worried about tracking the parcel-I just require proof of delivery (signature) at a cheap rate. Companies such as TNT, UPS are just too expensive. Clive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khutan Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 If you are going to send many packets, you may be able to start an account with someone like Trans Air Cargo. They will deliver and do all that stuff BUT, like all companies, have minimums etc. I am sure everything is negotiable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
