How to ship small items to america

[Dancali]

I want to ship a small item to my little brother in America.  He wants a cheap version of War Craft III. At Mail Boxes etc. they are telling me it would cost over 1000 baht to ship.  This sounds excessive.  Can somebody give me advice on a cheap way to ship small items to America.

Thanks.

What about EMS?. Normally they are cheaper.

Take the CD and manual out of the box and put them in a jiffy and send through the post as normal. I always get my wife to go to the post office in LOS, avoids the occational added on cost if you know what I mean.

note that a single cd weighs less than 1 oz.  you can mail it in a birthday card envelope and pay regular postage for an airmail letter.

yes your safest option is by the old fashion snail mail...but also get a bubblewrap lining envelope, convenient and rest assured...

For that weight, from any post office here in Thailand to USA the three options are:

EMS (3 days): 500 + BAHT

REGISTERED AIRMAIL (7 to 10 days): 200 BAHT

SAL (21 + days): 100 BAHT

Go THAILAND REGISTERED AIRMAIL, and I mean register it or it will disappear.
