    I dont want to know the details but, is the package big? heavy ? how fast do you need it to get there ? how much security do you require on its safe delivery ? all of these add to the price

    it depends Keith to the post office in the Phils..but u have to expect it..

    almost every couple of weeks we sent dvd (they used to rent it out to evrybody in the neighborhood) and bits and pices to my family and so far its ok now..ask ur gf/fiancee/wife to be friend with their post man so in case u send her anything it will be easier for her to receive it..

    I sent a CD to my lady and after 4 weeks she still hadn't received. On the off chance, she went to her local post office and found it had been sitting there waiting for her. No idea how long it had been there, especially considering I was sent a CD from the Philippines to the UK and it only took 10 days normal post!

    I sent a CD with all the pics I took on my first visit to Phils to meet Louella. When it eventually got there, 1 month later, she had to pay duty on it!
