ADVICE : Shipping from UK to South Africa safely

Post07 Apr 2016, 17:28

I need to ship a couple of watches safely to South Africa from the UK. I tried DHL but in the end they wanted £100 with insurance. Has anyone in the UK got any experience of this? Is £100 about right for £950 insurance? It seems really steep to me.

Parcelforce Global Express or Priority? Compensation up to £2,500 (additional charge) - not sure how much they charge though.... ..... http://www.royalmail.com/business/servi ... ss-parcels

Or if one of the watches is priced up to £250 you could split them and send one via International Standard... ....
