Advice on best way to send non-urgent 21kg box from Thailand to U.S.
I was looking at the Thailand Post website today and unless I'm missing something or put in the wrong info, it looks like they're now charging B6,090 for a 75-80 business day (i.e. surface mail) 21kg box to the U.S. This is up significantly from 2019 (B3,300 or so, if memory serves, for the cheapest uninsured, unregistered sea mail).

I know the costs in general for container shipping have gone crazy lately but wonder if anyone has better suggestions. Is UPS, DHL or somebody else cheaper at this point? Or have they gone up similarly?

Any current advice appreciated.
