Is that the only way to ship it? I would happily take the chance on an unregistered package and not bother you with it if it gets lost. I got 10 or 11 400' reels from Steve Osborne for 59, so I am would be willing to take the risk, if it's okay with you?

Vidar,
Just to give you an idea that USPS offers a flat rate box until max 4 lbs (USPS Priority international flat rate box). I believe Steve used this this to send those 11 reels for $59. No matter there are 4 reels or 10, it would just have the same rate.
USPS does no longer offer non-traceable service for international shipment.

Bob, I still think I want this, but if possible to find something cheaper, please do. Might it even be cheaper to send four packages?

Vidar like Winbert said the USPS uses flat rate boxes here.Small,Medium and Large.The small is 4 pounds max while the medium and large is 20 pounds max.Small cost $23.95,medium is $59.95 and the large is $77.95.
It doesn't matter if you put 1 reel of film or 200 reels of film in the box,as long as you don't go over the weight limit.The small box,the reel won't fit in.I'm sorry there is no cheaper way.

Okay, I still want it ... You do have PayPal I hope?
Thanks for checking
BTW : Don't have more to fill the boxes with for sale? I accept faded, splicey and stripey, just not sprocket damaged ones. And if the price is right :-)

I will PayPal you the money for the three titles. I do have both the L&H's, but maybe yours is better than mine. Thank you
