I've shipped to many other countries, not any where the number of countries, nor item shipped as Elecraft does, however, one strong deterrant is having to deal with lost, strayed, or undelivered items. Months of time and many hours of effort, will be spent, in an attempt to correct, or find the reason for non-delivery. Not to mention that insurance nor delivery tracking is available into many countries. And in some countries, mail theft happens, check on sending qsl cards to and from.... I'm just elated that I'm not in charge of shipping for Elecraft. Shipping international is simply a different set of rules, and must be managed differently than the local, normal mailings.
