easily a few hundred dollars.
you could ship it surface - which would take around 3 months. that would cut it down maybe half the price - but still cost a few hundred dollars. shipping by air might cost you $800 or more.

If you can find a replacement in HK, buy it there.

you're the kowloonprince, you tell us 
I shipped a few cart parts back and forth. From here, it's $300-400 + insurance.
From there, you can buy the dude at the post office some ling cha, and he'll do it for free | |

freight forwarding...
go to any FF company in the north terminal (there is a chinese one, called trust freight),
they will ship and deliver it in hk for you.
They charge you base on dimension, not weight. FYI

u could send it by boat on a crate.. my neighbour has a company that does it for really cheap.. unfortunately something really shady/fishy is going on with them or i could help you out.. but i imagine any shipping company would have similar rates ($50 for the crate and $1 a lb)
(ambulance came took someone out with the sheets over their head it was raining so maybe they were just trying to keep the rain off the person, but the police showed up.. the next night 3am ish 2 police cars went to their house for awhile and left and around 7am 6-7 police cars came by and arrested the husband, dont know whats up doesn't seem like the news got any wind of it)

| Bumping this back up!
I got a package i need to ship ASAP to Hong Kong
approx. 12x12x5.5 inches and 15-20 lbs
who might be the cheapest, but still get it there before the month is over and requires a signature upon arrival?
also, what's freight forwarding? It was mentioned above in post #12
TIA

its a freight shipping company that will ship your packages in their cargo tanker (by boat)
what you're asking for (by the end of the month) is all ups/ems/canadapost etc
you're looking at a few bills though (because of signature) bit less if ur fine with just delivery confirmation

go the UPS way and save you the trouble.

Air Canada Cargo - Drop it off at the airport at the Air Canada Depot and have your aunt pick it up at the Air Canada Depot in HK. If you can find someone that works at Air Canada they get like 50 percent off shipping i think. No to sure i used them about a year ago when I moved. http://www.aircanada.com/cargo/en/ | |
