[sdiy] Overseas shipping (was: Senso's garage sale)

[Senso]

Hi Harry,

It wasn't about your post - or my item - in particular. It's just 
that I've seen oft before that people are scared away from things 
they would love to have, assuming that the costs for overseas 
shipping will be horrendous, even if it's just a small item. Nothing 
to do with my cool item, just an observation.
I would advise anybody with an interest in a European 
object-of-desire to at least inquire about shipping costs before 
dismissing it. Of course I don't know the rates in every European 
country, but when shipping anything below 2 kg from Holland by 
"economy mail", it will cost no more than 16 Euro's. It will take 
just a few days longer to arrive. Even a 20 kg (!) parcel - which 
covers almost any type of gear - will be only 55 Euro's by that 
method. Quite a difference with what UPS charges for having a 
hardcore rave on your precious purchase. :-)
