OK! Have been looking on the forum but haven't found it yet. so point me in the right direction if it's necessary. A few guys & girls in the united States of America want to buy 7LOW CD's. I have no contacts there with stores whatsoever! My question what is the best, cheapest, most secure way to send a CD to the United States (or other exotic places of the world)

Anyone have experience with that?

not much choice either airmail or surface mail, pretty expensive anyway. if its a cd its ok tho. if you live near holland it seems cheaper to send from there

Do NOT at this point in time use surface mail for cd's to the USA. Send them air priority in bubbled enveloppes it sets you back 2.40 euro.

Surface mail to the USA can take as much as 1.5 to 2 months by boat and the cd's ALWAYS arrive heavily damaged.

No, you just use a little prior sticker, but if you ain't got any, you need to get them at the post office. And the price is a bit higher than surface.

DHL and similar, it depends, usually larger cities are aroudn 20-30 euro for a package and more expensive for remote towns. But anyway, not worth it for music cd's.
