Shipping to Europe

I have a request (today) to ship to Berlin Germany and my item needs to arrive no later than June 27th. I can ship it out tomorrow and since it is jewelry it is small. I have shipped to Europe a few times in the past but I have no idea how long it took to arrive.

Anyone have a suggestion as to which carrier service to use, and which type of service, in order to have the order arrive in Berlin by June 27th?

Thanks

Well, I have shipped from Europe to USA and it took between 5 to 14 working days. I hope this helps.

Re: Shipping to Europe

I've never shipped to Germany, but other items I've sent to Europe have taken between 1-3 weeks (and actually two of the orders on opposite ends of that range were to the same UK address for the same product), so it really depends. Of course, I was shipping USPS first class international. If you want to guarantee it will get there by June 27th, you should ask the buyer if they want to upgrade to Priority. Of course, priority international is FAR more expensive than first class, but if it's for a wedding the buyer might think it's worth the extra expense.

Re: Shipping to Europe

I live in Europe! Items usually arrive in 7 to 14 working days, although the average is around 10 days. It also depends if you live in a big city or in a village. Parcels arrive sooner to big cities. Hope this helps!

Re: Shipping to Europe

Once the item leaves the USA it is out of our hands. Can't track it and it does take quite a long while, from my own experience.
