One tidbit, I have been able to drop the price of
overseas shipping by up to 70% by picking up the item
directly at the airport. This is only practical if you
live close to a major airport that the carrier
supports.

I'm looking at getting a cpu shipped to me from
the
UK. I checked UPS and it
says 40 pounds, 30x20x10 inches, would be about $106
to ship to me in US,
63146.
I've never shipped anything from UK to US before -
can anyone advise if
there is a better carrier, things to look out for,
etc. I'd appreciate any
advice.
Normally I wouldn't go to so much trouble, but it's
a older PDP-11 that
would particularly round out my collection :)
