Guys, I'm looking to bid on some Blackhawk titles from the US, but the shipping is going to be nearly three times the price of the print. Could someone on here act as a postal inbetween, taking the prints and sending them on to the UK at a less expensive cost? I'll cover expenses of course, thank you.

Hi Stuart I think there is a priority mailer envelope you might get 2, or possibly 3 in.

I think its around $25/27 or so.

Best Mark.

I don't mind fowarding them for you. Yeah, in most cases the Flat Rate Priority envelopes are the way to go. However, they keep upping the price. They are now $32.95 (just a couple years ago they were $13.95). I can squeeze three 400' reels with boxes in an envelope or four reels with no boxes.
