Shipping perfume internationally

biscuitMember

Can it be done in a way that's not going to cost me 4 times what the perfume is worth (i.e. using FedEx). USPS seems to have a total ban on shipping it overseas...

Actually, it's eau de toillette, if that makes a difference, and I might need to ship like 15 to 20 ounces of the stuff.

Why does the USPS have a ban on shipping perfume?

I've done a little poking around, though, and, of course, everyone has a different answer as to if it can be done through USPS or not.

Their official position seems to be that it's completely prohibited, though.

I see. It's a flammability issue. Well, does it contain any alcohol?

My off the record take, just mail it.

I agree! Just ship! <P><P>I sold a huge bunch of bottles/cans of beer Many were full & went through the USPS against their regulations. (though I didn't know about it at the time)

The beer was from a bottle/can collection and there was probably no alcohol involved as they were 30-40 years old. I sure wouldn't have wanted to sample the goods even though I LOVE my beer!

I'll stay away from that sort of item now that I know the reg's of the USPS though so disregard my "go ahead" above!
