+FLtravelers Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Sorry for not posting more, I wasn't seeing any real response to my first picture. So I figured everyone must just be out caching and enjoying the great weather. Thanks for the photo. Love seeing "what's inside the box". Quote
+Sadie'sOwner Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Thanks for the picture! I can't wait for a box to make it my direction! Quote
+jpbarr Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Definately, when you see all the great stuff being sent you really wonder what will be there by the time it gets to you Quote
+mamoreb Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Could someone give the actual dimensions of the box and the weight please. Want to see what sort of postage I am looking at... I'd be very interested in that info too. Quote

+keewee Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Could someone give the actual dimensions of the box and the weight please. Want to see what sort of postage I am looking at... I'd be very interested in that info too. I'll pass that info on once the box is on it's way. Thanks. Would be much appreciated I made a quick guess of the dimensions and weight so will be interesting to see how close I came... Another thought I had was about the box being made of wood - could that cause issues with customs/border control? Need to make sure that any customs forms are going to be marked "Treated Wood"... and the padlock is sure to perk their interest also... Hope no over zealous customs officers get their hands on it!

+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted September 6, 2011 Author Posted September 6, 2011 OK...so some people were asking about weight and diminsions Etc...Here are some stats. The Treasure Chest fit perfectly in a box that is 4x6x8 inches The inside is about 4x6 inches, and with the logbook inside, you'll have about 1-1.5 inches height to fill up, not much space, but you can pack a lot of small things in there. The Box with it's logbook, two traveling coins(yes, I attached two) and a pen are about 1.5 pounds. I think this answers some of the recent questions...as for how to label the box on Customs forms, I think I just called it Jewelry Box. That should be clear enough that the wood has been processed. If the padlock concerns them much, they will be able to figure out the puzzle easily enough. Quote
+mamoreb Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 Thank you WSR. I think I'm crazy trying to be part of this... Minimum 36$ postage for me. 47$ if I'm not careful with the weight... Biting my nails. Quote

OK, so if I work on a 1kg weight then that puts me at about $34 for AirMail or $55 for Economy International Courier (the cheapest option I can get tracking with) Quote

+MoonCatKDT & Peanut Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 I am sorry to say this, but I think I am going to drop out of this mission. I can't guarantee the amount of time I will have when the package gets here (because at this rate that should be around christmas or later) with my job, setting up a nursery and in all learning how to be a mom and still doing everything else I need to do in a day. Also, i'm selling 95% of my coins so I will have nothing to put in!
