What is the least expensive way to ship a surfboard to Japan from Taipei or Los Angeles?

Courier service. Nippon Express is a trust worthy company. I'd rather pay a little more and get one board than pay less and get two halves.

break down the cost in Board size new and used.\n\n10-8 ft new $550.00 used $350\n7-8ft   New $495.00 used $300\n6-7ft    New $435   Used $250\n5-6ft    New $400    Used $200.00\nYou can find less but they will be water logged or pretty crappy. That will get you going look for the college kid that bought the surfboard to be cool and never used it. Nice and new and cheep because he is moving to Colorado. g.l

There was just a really good article on Surfline.  http://www.surfline.com/surfnews/article_bamp.cfm?id=4735   It talks all about Japan's surf scene.  Also in the last month, I remember seeing a picture of a crazy big wave off the coast of Japan.  It's a crazy outer reef like Mav's.  It was a pretty fast left.  I don't remember what I saw that in, I get Transworld Surf, Surfer, Surfing, and Surfer's Journal, so I get mixed up easily.

I wouldn't recommend buying a surfboard online.  For instance, there could be pressure dings and cracks that the picture doesn't pick up, and shipping can also be somewhat of at b*tch.  If you live in or near Encinitas or Solana Beach then you might check out the Surfride shops on the 101 Coast Highway.  There's one just north of Encinitas on the 101 North past Encinitas Blvd. and one just south of Pipes in Solana Beach  They both have excellent selections, or you could ask around, but I still recommend against buying online.

I am definately there is a shipping company that can do that.  But my suggestion is that you try an aeroplance coz it would reach faster.

One reason is Clark Foam, the largest supplier of foam blanks for surfboards closed. The cost of complying with strict EPA laws was too costly for them to continue. Now many of the blanks are being shipped from China or Australia. The cost rises because of shipping and cost to keep the environment safe. Many boards are also being made of epoxy resin which raises the price of the board considerably.

You could check eBay to see if a seller is willing to ship overseas.

There's no 'easy' way or everyone would be doing it. eBay IS the best option and you don't have to leave your house to sell items. You can have shipping carriers pick up your boxes from the house. \n\nConsider a drop shipper.

Use US Postal Service.  It should be the same as shipping to someone in the US.
