pricing & international shipping for prints

adrian_k · July 21, 2005

I've got a couple of hundred shots that I want printed but I can't figure out how much it'll cost to get these mailed to the UK.
The best I can find is "you'll see the final price on the checkout page" (or similar). That requires me to create an account load up ~400Mb of files then go to checkout.

I'm not interested in the photo-sharing side of things, just prints.

thanks

The easiest way to do this is to find someone's gallery and order the same amount of prints at the sizes that you want then enter your billing and shipping info and choose your shipping method (which will have a price). Just don't confirm the order and you should get a valid total cost for the order including shipping.

The reason we can't show shipping up front is because no two orders are alike and that shipping costs fluctuate constantly outside of the US. If we were to provide some type of table, it would take more effort for you to look up the result than to do the above method

You also don't have to order different prints. You could order a few hundred copies of the same print at various sizes.

Here's a table that may help:

thanks for the suggestions
I had already tried the dummy order, but it still required me to registered :-(

hi Baldy, I'd found that table already, it produced some scary figures though. Which is why I asked the question here.

For Example:
300 prints (5x7) = 30 x $3.90 = ~$130 (yikes!)
Medium printsto 10x15Up to 10$3.90-4.88$9.90-12.38

thanks

We don't require you to register an account to order prints, we explain on the page that we ask for an email address and password only so you can come back and check on the status of your order. So give it another try, I am sure it will be less than $130.
