Buy/Sell - Uncensored

Shipping outside the US is expensive and involves paperwork. If the buyer is paying for shiping the seller still has to deal
with paperwork. In New York, I have heard of a few places that handled shipping to Canada. In south Florida there were plenty
of places that handled shipping to various Latin American countries. I will ask around but the best place to look is a place
with a large number of German immigrants, then look for a import/export business.

Thanks!

I think in this case, the problem is that the "fullfilled by Amazon" stuff simply has some stupid restraints set in their software. The stuff sold by amazon directly (and some few 3rd party shops) usually ships to europe for varying prizes. I have paid for shipping as low as 3$ for a book to germany and up to 10$. Some of them travel for about a month (probably by ship) and some arrive within 2 weeks.

It is all a mystery to me. Since those Shenzen resellers like Deal Extreme will ship a sinlge battery worth less than 2$ to europe for almost no shipping cost. Globalisation is failing totally here!

There are a number of shops that ship internationally listed on this site: http://internationalshippingshops.blogspot.co.il/

The more complete list is on hizmanti.com, but that's in Hebrew...

Thanks trilcat, but I am interested in two special books (art exhibition catalogues) which are for sale at less 33% of their regular price. Depending on condition and edition they are worth between 350-500€.

But after some research I found http://www.shipito.com/shop-pricing which seems quiet affordable.

Will they reroute explosives for you?

I didn't research much into that direction, I'd guess they would, they seem to have this "We proxy it, see for yourself if it fits with your country's firewall" policy. But if I were them, I wouldn't let explosives destroy my storage fascilities.

Anyway, the package I ordered was shipped on 26th of November with USPS Priority Airmail, it landed in Germany on the 1st of December, which is pretty fast. German customs duty then processed the package further and I got a letter yesterday that I could pick it up personally... and pay turnover tax of 7,27€ (exactly $9.5)...

So far, shipito rocks, USPS airmail does too, german customs duty sucks big time.
