Thread: Shipping backpack from the states

I bought a suitcase from the UK a few years back and had it shipped via youshop... stupidly I didn't look into it enough and got charged with the volumetric shipping weight (i.e. length x width x height), as opposed to the actual weight etc. It wasn't able to be flattened so I paid to ship all of the air inside it too!! If it can be flattened you should be fine though.
