I wish I could find a cheap way to get parts to foreign countries
SECURELY. As an example, an 8 pound package via UPS is $156.75. 1 pound
is $74! Most folks can't justify that. and there is not much cheaper
that is trackable. Reason for the cost is that it only goes air freight.

It also varies greatly on the country. I can mail things to New Zealand
and Au at a cheaper rate. Postal service is reliable there and goods
actually arrive. Central and South America are patchy at best. Europe
varies widely. It's a tough one. Anyone with ideas? I'm all ears...
