I Need to Return 100 ml Herbal Oil to USA

Hello, I purchased herbal oil from USA and now need to return it.

It costs me $120 for 100ml oil but I do not need it and the seller is happy for me to return it back. I went to Post Office but they told me they do not send liquid items and asked me to send it through DHL.

I looked up for DHL shipping but it's coming up as $135 fee to ship the item to USA.

Is there any other cheaper option I have to send the oil back to seller in USA?

Thank you

    you would think the USA would be more interested in taking Oil from you …

  • Give it to yo momma for xmas.

    If it is actually worth that money, might be better to throw it up on Fleabay or sell it on FB Marketplace or similar. Just don't fall for one of those FB Marketplace scams.

      I'm going to guess that "herbal oil" means it's not legal to sell in Australia (unlike parts of the US where "herbal oil" has been legalised).

        Well, if it's illegal to sell here then it shouldn't get past Customs.

    Try contacting a company like Pack Send and see if they can ship it, but for $120 I would probably eat the loss. Sending anything to the USA costs at least $20. Sell it on eBay if you can.

    Big mistake asking the parasites directly.Is it nitro glycerine?
    Highly explosive or flammable? Did it not safely traverse the planet to you initially?

      Airline rules are odd sometimes. For many years it was possible to get an item containing lithium batteries air mailed from China to Australia, but Australia Post refused to send it back.

      Australia Post can't send liquids to the USA as the liquid has to be carried in passenger aircraft. Courier companies with dedicated planes don't have that restriction.

    $120 for 100ml oil

    Was it snake oil?

    • Sounds like it. Bizarre you would want it, then want to return it, and that the seller is happy to get it back/ + refund. OP could decant that sucker ,keep some,and whack another oil in the jar, return it and then flog the rest of the the real shit on ebay.

    You won't be getting the shipping costs back on the return. Lets say thats at least $30.

    So why not just sell it locally for $80 and call it done?

    l but I do not need

    How do you buy a herbal oil and then decide you don't need it?

    Voodoo aside, you knew what you were buying?

    I think it’s yours now, maybe share with friends. Bake some herbal brownies for Christmas?
