Posting a fur coat to Spain

[minniemoo]

I have a fur coat on e-bay for sale and someone has asked me how much it would cost to send to Spain. I have no way of weighing the coat and so wonder if anyone would know how much the postal cost would be to send it to Spain. It is a knee length fur coat. Thanks all.

Don't know the postal cost, but have to say, be very careful, it sounds a bit dodgy to me - why would you need/want a knee length fur coat in Spain? I know there are areas that are colder (in the hills) but even so........

You could take it into your local Post Office and ask them how much it would cost to send to Spain. I work in a Post Office and people quite often do this. It will cost more though if you want to insure it, so make sure you ask for all the options. It would also be best if you packaged it first as a small packet size to Europe is a lot smaller than for things being posted to the UK, off hand I think that the maximum size of length plus depth plus width is 90cm. Have a look here for some of the options http://www.postoffice.co.uk/portal/po/content1?catId=19100179&mediaId=95000762

weigh yourself on your scales, put on the coat, and then weigh again, it'll give you a rough idea.
