Hi Guys: I have around 70-80 books that I want to take back to Nepal. Currently I am in USA. Is there a cheap way to ship them to Nepal? I can wait for a couple of weeks/months for my books to arrive in Nepal. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thanks!!

If those books are printed in India, may be cheaper to buy there than to ship.

syanjali bro that's what i were thinking.. its would cost ways cheaper if u can find it printed in India.. and if u live in Ktm then you can find any books in regarding any subjects in a book store located at Mahangkal main entrance of Tudikhel. u won;t believe me with their huge collection in every field with the forigen writer.. to be convinced you may ask give the name of book and its writer to your family or friend and ask them to visit there to check..

Go for USPS Media Mail.

A while ago I calculated the shipping cost; it costs around US$2900.00 for four box worth 70 lb each. (D-24times18times16 inches). Very very expensive. If there is a cheaper way you know, please share here.

Biraj, I checked USPS Media Mail. Seems that it is also very expensive. Around $300 per box.
