Hi,

I%26#39;ve sent many parcels over a few years and surprisingly ( to me ) I%26#39;ve never lost anything from any of them.

The down point is the cost in using the Uk post Office. I sent a parcel of games to an orphanage near Kandy, it weighed about 4 or 5 kilos and cost me nearly 拢80 to send.

Check out the P.O. weight limits before you pack anything. Not long ago, two parcels of two kilos were about a quarter of one parcel weighing four kilos.

Crazy, but thats the way they did it and I assume, still do.

I have posted a few parcels to Lanka an have had some go missing on there side

Hi!

Just a small advice to inscrease your chance that they will receive your parcels. Don%26#39;t register it, if possible(?), if you register it means the parcel is valuable. And anyway registered or not, if the parcel is lost in sri lanka, you won%26#39;t find it again...

another way is to find somebody who can bring it for you...

Good luck!
