MyUS UK address issue

[bwana]

Weird, FedEx gave me £377 for the size and weight...
Parcel is already repacked as small as possible.

Did you check using the service I linked to earlier? FWIW TG Express Worldwide Service is DHL.

Out of interest, is that the same address you see if you follow these instructions?

The process to shop UK stores and ship purchases to your country is very similar to how you already shop US stores with MyUS. Instead of entering your US address at checkout, you will just enter your new UK address!

You can find your UK address in your online account. When you log in, just click the double arrows next to your US address in the top right corner to display your UK address.

Yes, it shows my suite number for the UK and the Ripon House address lines I posted above.

I think it's safe to assume they're at the very least sharing a location with Forward2Me, otherwise that or they've outsourced it to them.

Not yet, going to check it out once MyUS respond.

The FedEx cost to get it here is R7500 for shipping only, so not an option unfortunately - parcel is 4.5kg.

Doesn’t make sense.

MyUS is also just going to use FedEx so either it will cost you the same, or that quotation is way off.

What is this you are bringing in?

FedEx Economy should be less than $90 for that.

It doesn't make sense, just used their app to get a quote on economy from UK to SA for the weight/dimensions. Quote does seem way off. Didn't go further when I saw their cost...

Parcel mostly old scale diecast models that I refurbish, toys I suppose.

MyUS should use DHL or FedEx, my items from the US came via DHL.
I get a much better rate with my account with them opposed to using the couriers directly to SA. Last parcel of similar size and weight from the US was about $90 all in for the cheapest option.
