If you check on the website for the airline you would be looking to fly with, they will probably have their charges for excess baggage listed.

I can tell you now though, that it is unlikely to be cheap. I just checked my local airline's rates yesterday and it is EUR10/GBP7 per kilo over the standard 20kg you get for economy.

I'm not very good with weights, but can imagine that a TV weighs a lot of kilos and so it woud cost a fortune taking it out there as excess baggage. Then there's the chance they will break it anyway.

I think you would be better off buying locally, even if it is a bit more expensive than in the UK.
