It will be more than 6 2nd class stamps. Lol
Buy a large jiffy bag, it will fit in that, go to the post office and see what large sizes they have..
It will cost about £2-3 to get it there.. maybe even £4-5...
Best to send it recorded so it doesnt go missing!

also if you are going to send it boxed, ask for more swapits
it will cost even more to post

Well first of all, wrap the box in bubble wrap and then buy some parcel wrapping paper (quite cheap) and wrap it up in that.
Take it to the Post office and get it weighed. If it's a DS lite then it would probably be about £3-£4. Make a little slit in the paper before you go to the post office first. When it is weighed, ask for the stamps twice. Slip the stamps or stamp through the slit and then tape it over and then stick the stamp on the front

thx soo much,,, this IS what i wanted!! added karma and comment
edit: do u mean 3-£5 per side or altogether?
|

No £3-£5 for each side.
Should cost you about £8-£10 max. for you to send it alltogether with forwarding stamps.
Thanks for karma by the way

where can i get parcel paper from, i also have around 7 stamps,, would dat be enought for at least one side or two?

It's basically just brown paper.
You can get it from Tescos, the Post Office, Asda; basically everywhere.
If you have a PoundLand near you, they sell enough for a DS Lite for a quid so thats good.
Well If those 7 stamps are first class then they are worth about £2.24.
Get it weighed at the Post Office so that you make sure it is right
