Have to back up what Jim, KL7CC,.said: Flat-Rate Priority Mail is just that - the same amount to ship to all 50 states! I use PayPal as it most convenient for selling and buying (verified funds and almost instantly transferred-no monetary exchange fees). I can use my credit card with PayPal as most hams are not able to accept a cc payment. But then some folks don't "like" PayPal (I translate that to mean they do not trust it). I have been using is for several years with both ebay and private ham transactions, in the USA and internationally. Never a problem!
BTW International Priority Mail is reasonably fast (from Alaska to EU about 15-days or less). Customs forms are not hard to fill out. If you have a question ask at the postal desk. I think the CONUS folks need to come up and mush a dog team at -20F and have a sleep-over in an igloo. Folks have got too used to easy-fast everything with apps! Just as a side note so you know where I am coming from: I lived my first three years in Alaska in a 8x10 foot canvas wall-tent heated with wood and no utilities of any kind...I would not trade that experience for anything (but glad I live in a modern gas-heated home, now). I have had sled dogs since 1980 with only three left in their (and my) old age. When folks limit their transactions to CONUS they miss out. I hear there are a lot of rich oil people live up in Alaska! I could say more but this is OT. 73, Ed - KL7UW, WD2XSH/45 ====================================== BP40IQ 500 KHz - 10-GHz www.kl7uw.com EME: 50-1.1kw?, 144-1.4kw, 432-100w, 1296-testing*, 3400-?
