Oozing Goo - The Lava Lamp Syndicate

Hi

I've searched the internet and am trying to find a definitive answer to my question. Can you actually ship Mathmos Lava Lamps to the USA from the UK, using an air carrier/courier ? Have you recently done so ?

I apologise to ask in here, but my head is spinning due to conflicting info. For example :-

A] No fluids allowed to ship to USA

B] If you do ship worldwide you need to use Royal Mail Worldwide 48 hours.

If there's anyone out there who has recent eperience here, I'd love to be informed.

All the best all

Check out Forward2me,  many have used that shipping route to get mathmos lamps here in the USA.

Many couriers ignore the small print and are happy to ship, but won't insure glass so it's your risk.

Ask the seller for double-boxing

good luck!

Thank you very much for the replies.

It's certainly something to think of.

Regards

Brian

I use forward to me for mathmos

they give you a UK address to send the lamps to, then they reship to usa

Thanks Claude. Do they re-package your parcels or just forward them untouched ?

facebook.com/pg/vintagelavalamps :)  Ship worldwide with no issues 

They do not typically repack the shipment.  However they may do so if you request that and pay a fee.  You should ask them about that.  I have used their service several times and found them to be a great outfit. I will be continuing to use their service as needed.

I use forward2me.com as well.  Not overly expensive, you can choose which company you want to ship with, and they can hold your package for a short time and consolidated everything if you need that service.  Two thumbs up!
