I was wondering if anyone can help me with a rough estimate of how much it would cost to send a package from Riyadh to Cape Town? If anybody knows or has an idea it would be a huge help!

It all depends on how big the package is & of course the weight. I never really used the normal postoffice when I lived in Saudi, coz normal mail that I sent never reached the destination, so it's better to use the courier companies, as they are more reliable & you can keep track of your package.
