Hi guys

I’ve seen a book I’d like to buy in the classified adverts, but the seller won’t post to me in the UK.

Is there anyone here in the USA that would be willing to have it posted to them, then forward it on to me in the UK? I’d be willing to pay for all costs of course.

Please help! Very Happy

Calvinator has agreed to look into it for me, but I’ll keep you in mind as a backup. Cheers for replying Smile

What a story! Make sure to send by media mail. It's usually cheaper.

Media mail inside the USA, there is no media mail international.

kawfee probably knows that but I thought I would clarify.

It's slow though but if you are in no hurry...

That's true.

Sometimes there are some nice options for international. The best I see is large first class envelope. It's around $12. It might not come with tracking. Usually once you add tracking/insurance it becomes a package. If you insure it make sure you insure it for the price it would cost you to buy another especially if you got a really good deal on the one you purchased.
