Hey guys,

 Try shipping anything from the UK, it is expensive, why do you think we call it "ripoff Britain".
Dont flame the seller, it is probably not his fault!!  It is more to do with the size and weight of the item not the value. :-)

And can someone explain to me WHY sending a CD32 would require a box of dimensions big enough to fit a human being inside?? He quoted: H=26cm W=45cm L=58cm


Small human? must be a kid. Do you have centimeters on your tape measures in the US, maybe you were looking at inches
 :lol:

Also, how many CDs will be included and are they in jewel cases?? could be up to 100!!! how much space/weight would that be :idea:

And, there was a thread recently about stuff arriving damaged due to poor packaging, so maybe this guy is planning to box it up with extra padding for safety... :crazy:
