Hi all,

I am planning to buy many clothes while I am in Shanghai (around 10 kilos) so not possible to bring them in my luggages...

Do you know what would be the best and cheapest way to send my clothes to Europe (Geneva in Switzerland)?

Thanks a lot for your help

China Post, 水陆路邮件 (shuilulu, surface mail)

Thanks for your answer but what do you mean? I am not talking about a book or 2 but a big parcel, so I am not so sure that the China post is the best way, is it?

You could try www.sevenseasworldwide.com or DHL but it won't be cheap. Why are you buying so much stuff?

Ehm, yes I read that you want to send 10kg. And yes, you can do it with China post. I sent around 30kg with them = several parcels. Keep in mind that they are going to check what's inside the parcels. (It can take up to 3 month till it'll arrive though)

To explain it again: surface mail (= shuilulu) is the CHEAPEST option.
If money is no issue you can use DHL, UPS ....or pay the airline fees for excess luggage.
