Won this beauty ..... but
« on: February 09, 2008, 11:17:32 AM »
Hello all, so I won this wonderful beauty on ebay and at a good price it seems, however when asked them for shipping they told me they could only send the item via USP Priority mail for $120 dollars.linky to me that seems a bit steep for this item, I mean there has to be way to ship via ship in America, right?  :-(

I found this though, just like in Japan we have SAL (Surface Airmail)  the USPS now has ISAL (Intenational Surface Air Lift) too which is much cheaper.  If anyone else will get caught out by the new rules ask for ISAL, this is gonna be the cheaper alternative.

Yes, unfortunately no more long shipping times from America, but I managed to reduce the shipping to $70 now which is more manageable  :roll:
