Can one of our brothers from across the pond please enlighten me about the difference between First class international postage & Economy International, as there's a big difference in cost.
As an example, i've bought a soap from Maggards for $28.88 inc economy shipping yet if I bought the same soap direct from the maker, it would be $46.99 inc first class shipping.
I've had goods sent by both & they take about the same time - 10 days.
Does using economy mean sending the boy down to the post office at 1630hrs instead of having it picked up & why do so few offer economy shipping ?
