Make sure you do your home work before sending....find out if Romanian customs charge a fee.

Had a lovely surprise when i sent a box of weetabix too the Philippines (OK so my boys like good old UK brekkie  ;D) used them and was amazed it was only £40 odd.

Then a week later (should have taken 3 days door too door) after much phoning around and huffing and puffing found customs always charge a fee and wouldn't release the box until paid.

Only found out as DHL was kind enough too tell me..... :o

I will use them for uk too uk stuff but nothing oversea"s now.....DHL ect will be more expensive but know fee"s regards customs ect ect. :y

Wouldnt worry too much about customs Romania is EEC.

Also i`ve used this service and DHL together to despatch an inlet manifold to Romania and Secondry Air Injection pump to Bulgaria last week.

Both items have been recieved and no mention of any charged  :y
