How much will it cost me to ship a package to France?

How much more does it cost to ship a package to Hawaii from TN?

  • I have an item listed on Ebay and one of the bidders is from Hawaii. I didn't think about that when I listed my item. For example a package that cost $2.50 to ship to other states would cost approx how much more to ship to Hawaii?

  • Answer:

    For the best answer, I recommend going right to the source, the United States Postal Service. They have a very comprehensive, easy-to-use website, www.usps.com. On their shipping page you can enter your ZIP code, the destination ZIP code, and the weight of the parcel. Voila! You'll see the shipping cost instantly. It shouldn't cost much more, as Hawaii is part of the United States, so it wouldn't incur international shipping costs.

As stated above, going to the USPS website is your best way to get valid shipping rates. If the item you're selling can indeed be shipped for $2.50 to other states, then shipping it to Hawaii shouldn't be prohibitively more expensive...perhaps an extra buck or so. You MAY want to look into using USPS Flat Rate Shipping boxes. The medium costs about $10.50 and it can be shipped anywhere in the US, including Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico, and a few other locations. They also have smaller and larger boxes as well. Hopefully the item you're selling is not particularly large. Shipping such a package from Tennessee to Hawaii can be costly, possibly upwards of $100. BTW: Your best method for keeping problems like this from happening is to use the option to calculate shipping based on ship-to location. eBay's calculator is relatively accurate. All you need to to is plug in the weight of the package and its dimensions, and eBay will charge the buyer the correct postage due when it calculates the invoice. Hope this helps.
