Postage to Holland

[weymouthPIE]

Sold a Southampton programme on ebay to a guy who lives in Holland.
I've never sent anything outside the UK so just wondering does it cost much more to send stuff to Holland? if so how much?

Are you dangerman's twin brother?
Seriously though you go to the post office and ask to send to holland, you can also check the royal mail website.
The price to Europe isn't much more especially if you state that you are sending printed papers

Cost me about 80pence to send an old ticket to Belgium a couple of weeks ago, so would imagine it would be the same. They also offer international type recorded delivory but that was quite a bit more from memory.
