I don`t think it would be any more than that small packet, less likely and surface less still though not sure about ins, you are covered for £28 as standard now I think if you ask its free. best Mark.
Just had a quick look and if they can bring it in under 2000grammes or 2 kilogrammes, its about £18 or just over air small packet, they have to write that on in the left corner, also not put a letter in. If surface its about half that and usually takes around 2 weeks or longer, can be much longer, with the US election I`d say it was a fair bet things may be a bit longer now with more being opened and checked etc. Make sure you ask the seller to put cine film on the customs slip clearly as in the US you do not pay duty on cine films coming in( thanks Steve) It all depends on the packaging really, if bohnams or plastic cases it will be well over 2KG, or if card and not too full reels it may come in oK under that which would be good. Anyway hope it goes well. If over 2KGs you need to go to parcel force and I think its a bit dearer, I`d guess £25-£30, but only a guess, but from the Uk once you go up a bit its not cheap. On that note though splitting into 2 may be a good option surface wise and the best to do, if under 2kg though anyway you should be fine. best Mark.
