international shipping

[plato computer]

By far, call up DHL and tell them taht you are doing international 
shipping, and they will put together a price schedule for you that will 
beat anything, hands off.  As part of the pricing schedule, they will 
automatically give you extra-special domestic shipping as well.  it's way 
worth it.  Only problem with domestic shipping is that DHL doesn't 
require signatures, but other than that, it saves a load.
