Shipping via the US Postal Service is not something that many of us would choose to do, especially with something as delicate and valuable as a ham transceiver. That's a big part of why UPS and Fed Ex exist. In my case, the major reason I don't want to sell internationally is the matter of customs and duties, with the associated paperwork. Here it's mostly ignorance of what is needed, what the procedures are, etc. I might look at it differently with a ham I knew as the buyer. Nothing parochial beyond ignorance. :) 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
