I went looking on eBay, at the Completed auctions. There was one
Dutch auction with 3 11-drawer cabinets full of electronic components
with a starting bid of $400, looked to be in very good shape, but NO
bids !?! When I clicked Calculate Shipping, it came to $3000! Are you
****tin' me? Bob


No.
International shipping of anything larger than a letter is very
expensive. The quote I just received for shipping a 7500kg machine via
slow boat to Europe one-way is over $24,000, including crating.

You can't 'idiot proof' anything....every time you try, they just make
better idiots.
