How much would UPS shipping to Australia Cost?

I've got several books, 3 pairs of shoes, 1 coat and a blanket that I need to ship home to Australia from New York. Any one know approximately how much this will cost to ship? I've been on the UPS website but I'm having trouble working out how much it'll weigh - I've got no scales! Any thoughts would be helpful!

1. You need to know the weight and package size to find the answer. Go to The UPS Store or a UPS building and they can tell you there. International shipping is expensive.
2. I had to look up shipping a box of books, just shy of 40 pounds, from NYC to Singapore, and it came to over US$500. Books are very heavy, so a few hard-bound books, 3 pairs of shoes, a [winter?] coat and bulky blanket will certainly weigh 20 pounds or better (10kg). And prices to Australia should run fairly close to those for S'pore, certainly not dramatically cheaper. So for a rough guesstimate, US$500 probably isn't grossly off the mark. If you've got that much budgeted, that figure should be close to adequate.
