Q: Cheapest way to ship from China

What is the cheapest way to send a small package or letter internationally from China, less than 100g, nothing taxable or prohibited?  I friend of mine said it would all be over 100rmb.  Is that true?  Speed is not a factor.

Today I EMSed a very, very small packet of documents to New York using the Chinese EMS -- two or three pages of a last will and testament and codicile.  The cost was way, way over RMB 250.  I myself was stunned at how expensive it was.

 

Even if you were to ship the package by China Post Ocean Freight, it would take months to arrive, if ever.

 

Apparently 20 kgs of good sent to Europe by ocean freight from China Post costs around RMB 400 and requires about 2 - 4 months to arrive. Many persons note that when goods shipped by ocean freight finally arrive, they arrive with cockroaches, vermin and the like.

Next, you can nagivate the China Post office website and enter your data (how many kgs, destination, et.c, etc.) and it will pop up an approximate cost. Look here:

Here you can get the actual charges for your article:

Fly back yourself and take it all as luggage? Sell stuff and use some of the profits to fly back. [Side note: I have not read either the question fully or any of the posts above my own, I am far too lazy today to do anything which requires me to make any kind of an effort at all, apart from type out this long winded and pointless answer because I know that some of you will still be reading even now nipples, dogs barking, trees growing and I have no idea why I am unable to stop right now but I find it very funny any my colleagues are really curious as to why I am laughing like a sad little child right now]

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
