I may be shipping a microphone over to Ireland. Anyone have any suggestions on how to get it there inexpensively?

The good old US Postal Service would be my first choice. My brothers live in Rio de Janeiro, Geneva Switzerland, and Singapore, and I've shipped via UPS but it costs a fortune. USPS is always the least expensive, in my experience.

I was going to recommend Fedex Ground, but "the pond" could be an issue. Smile

How hard can you throw?

Seriously, though... I agree that regular mail might be the most cost effective. Make sure you pack it nice and tight too.
