Shipping Estimate to Australia

[sylviebee]

I've been trying to get a shipping cost estimate via small packet to Australia for the past few days.

The Canada Post website doesn't have quotes for small packets.  Does anyone know of a way to get that cost any other way, or know the cost for small packets 49 grams and for 99 grams?

What are the measurements? Perhaps it is too small for Small Packet?

Have you looked for Light Packet instead?

CPC's Find a Rate was being weird for a few days at this time last weekend and refused to show Small Packets or Tracked Packets at all and then only if you went to the Business rates quote side.

Yes, it's doing it again. As a Personal rate-seeker, it isn't visible for reasons unknown. Go to Show Minimum Online savings and you'll see it. 

I complained about this extensively last week. Canada Post is doing something weird with their Find a Rate pages right now.

Canada Post website changed the Find-A-Rate page. To see Small Packets, enter dimensions and weight, the shipping options will show, then in the top right corner you have to click on Show Minimal Online Savings and then Small Packet will show. Canada Post messed up the behavior of the page in a recent update in the past month or so.

It started to look like that last weekend.

Thank You.  That works.  How did you ever figure that out?

[momcqueen]

By continuing to look for it. I posted all about this last week.
