 I really would hate to have to pay customs, last time they said we'll
 let it pass for just $6 *this time*. (I'm in Argentina).
 Suck to be here, BTW.
 

We don't pay customs for anything under $50, but these products, CDs,
posters and such, they usually let it pass, even over $50.
But the point is, openbsdeurope didn't charge me a big amount for shipping,
as for the customs you will have to pay it or not anywhere (I suppose).

I can't say anything about ar, maybe gonz...@x61.com.ar knows.

Howdy Amarendtra, all?

I note here the comment that shipping to India
is quicker from Europe than from Canada or the US.

How are these shipments being made?  In my (long)
experience it is quicker/cheaper/more reliable to
use the standard postal system for international
shipments of sw images than pretty much anything
else.  There are various reasons for this, not
all of which are constructively defined.

 I recently pre-ordered from them, and was happy that they agreed to
 ship to a country not listed in their shipping zone -- India. The cost
 breaks-even for me, as both the computer shop and obsdeurope roughly
 cost roughly the same amount. But in my experience, shipments from EU
 reach India faster than those from Canada or US, so thought of giving
 them a try.
 
 The service is very friendly, and prompt. And I am happy that the
 money is going back into the OpenBSD project. Thanks.

Yes, I believe they ship via standard postal system. Over the last
year or so, stuff sent from the US and Canada took more time to arrive
at my place, than that shipped from the EU. Both were standard postal
system. So I am led to believe that this will be the case this time
too, though I know my sample space is very limited. :-)

Search the archives, please.

It's listed on http://www.openbsd.org/orders.html and I can recommend
it (but haven't got my cds yet, of course).
