well we europeans are being absolutely spoilt on ebay at the moment. this time last year there were about 80 items for sale at any one time. we're now on 350-400 regularly. there's always something there for ya!
you yanks really are an inhibited bunch! i often get emails and PMs asking me to except goods and send them on. this i will gladly do for any UHE member if it helps.
i've come unstuck this week though with the sale of some items to the USA that are light but long and the postage for two sets of fork springs is £30 ($55) by snailmail (the slowboat via the arctic circle methinks!). they weigh 2.7KG. i've sent a bar pad a week or so ago for £3 ($5.50) so you do have to be careful.
if anyone has a price, what it was etc - to post and they can put the costs up that would be great!
but you can PM the owner and ask.
here is the courier of the UK -they're the post office essentially:
www.parcelforce.com
visit it and suss out the weights and prices.
BTW i've bought:
a headlamp/#plate front for £2.50
rear disc - like new also - £5.50
set of SX bars £10.50
stator and coil - £40
