Ed... and all...

if you want to have an item shipped out of country and the seller says... international shipping, You generally need to email the guy directly

it's impossible for a shipping calculator to be able to compute the shipping from ohio to germany, or england, china, france, italy and so on.


The shopping cart thing I have set up on the heathkitshop works that way..

and I've posted it over and over on the web site that international shipping can't use the shopping cart as it won't be able to figure out the shipping..


but as simple as that seems, international buyers always use the shopping cart and I have to send emails requesting shipping funds.

I just think it's the nature of the beast.

Well...so much for "international" shipping...!

I tried the shipping calculator, and even though the seller said he'd sell
"worldwide", the country of choice that kept coming up in the eBay
sub-screen was the United States --- PERIOD.

No joy in the Great White North, where it's now -5F (coldest day yet this
season)...

Greetings.

I'm looking for a kind soul, with an eBay account, to look up the
following:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190182360471

which just happens to be a Drake TR-7; to keep things somewhat on topic.

I am interested in what you see shown for shipping costs. I'm in NH and
it shows $48.66.

Thanks in advance.

The shipping calculator says $40.17 to Sharon MA.

Caution: UPS has been adding surcharges to shipping costs, some of which are _NOT_ shown by their shipping calculator. Some sellers, me included,
have been adding handling fees to try to make up for the loss.
