greenbone: $22 NZD to ship a chromecast from amazon :/

It's probably in a box the size of a small country...

greenbone: my lowest delivery cost was $11.25 for a tee shirt

How's that possible without a special deal? International postage is calculated as NZD$12.50 per parcel, plus NZD$4.75 per 500g. The minimum chargeable weight is 500g and is charged in 500g increments thereafter. So, minimum cost is $17.25. $22 if it's over 500g.

Edit: Did you get the $6 multiple parcel discount?

I noticed on another topic somebody asking about name fields and having to put the Youshop ID in one. I have a problem, in that the microsoft US store won't put any numerical digits into the name field, has anybody else faced this situation and is there a way around it or is the US microsoft just off the list of possible online retailers to use?

I found the answer here: https://support.nzpost.co.nz/app/answers/detail/a_id/775

Some merchants don't accept numbers in the name field of their shipping details form.

If this happens it is fine to leave it out, as long as your unique YouShop ID is present in the second or third address line.

Drat, I have a missing parcel.
Delivered to YoUShop 26/3 (25/3 their time) and I still haven't had the 'we have your parcel, give us money' email...

Fingers crossed the investigation I just launched finds it. The parcel could have almost been delivered based on normal timings.

I may have to do some shopping in order to take advantage of the promo code, as I currently do not have any parcels
I think it is the first one I have been sent and not just stolen from this thread

Also, my lost parcel was found. Supplier I have used many times decided to omit any reference to my YouShop ID.
