  What is a typical sales price for a functioning
8" drive? 
How much would it cost to get one to Philip from where you are?

I'll cover the cost up to $100 total.
 Just checked the going mail rates.
If the weight is up to 5 kilo, a package will cost $ 55. They take $ 5 for an extra kilo.
For an extra 18$, I can send 10 kilo. The heavier, the "cheaper"
Would it be an idea with 2 drives, as the second would be almost for free, postage wise. 
If I send only 1 drive, I will in effect sell it for 45$, which is a but cheap
BTW, I still have the diagrams for the Qualstar 3412S you asked about years ago. Still
interested?
