Thanks, but doubtful without a furriner buying presence....,

my sales have really suffered since the U.S. Postal Service equalized shipping rates, especially with O' Canaduh.  I think there was an exchange rate de-equalization with The Great White North about the same time that really torpedoed cross-border sales.  I just sent a $140 U.S. payment to a Canucklehead in Nova Scotia, which translated to $187 loonies, or some such amount. Maybe it will be enough for him to buy a case of beer.

Crikey. Shipping costs was one of the reasons I stopped. When US to UK postage started costing more than the books themselves I knew the game was up.

Get them before someone else does! 

Things move at rapid pace out here in mixed! 

I recommend filling up a medium flat rate box to economize on the postal charges!
