Not scared away from JP's "challanging" bearing install (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)


Jeroen of the Netherlands has bravely stepped up to the plate to be possibly the very first person to run the trick needle bearing kit on the other side of the world.....so, what is my best mode of shipment that will be cost effective and actually get there before the end of the year??

Also being shipped at the same time will be some other 914 body parts...total weight should be in the 30 pound range with a box ~30x20x20???

Oh, how about payment? Does Paypal work in other countries?

Thanks

The shipper declares the value on the USPS customs form. So everything 914 related is worth $10 (at most). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Be aware that shipping the cheap way as Jeroen mentioned is literally by slow boat...it can take 6-8 weeks, maybe more in some cases. I have shipped to Western Europe and Asia a few times and it was not terribly expensive, but definitely SLOW. Fast = $$$ (just like our cars, LOL)

Also, even moreso than usual, package the heck out of it. Double-walled cardboard, foam popcorn, lots of good tape, etc.

Paypal supports international transactions just fine, as I recall.
