I need to ship a pc to England, and need information on how to best go about it. It's an old machine, to be sent to a friend for personal use at a university. I have the original packing boxes, so that's not a problem. My main questions are: 1. Can it be sent in less than three weeks for under $300? 2. Who is best, U.S. mail, UPS, Fed X or someone else? 3. How can I avoid import and/or tariff problems? 4. How much does insurance cost? If anyone can shed some light for me, I would be grateful. Thanks *********************************************************************** * Ralph Dosser rdosser@utkux1.utk.edu * * The University of Tennessee Computing Center * * Do you think I'd be working in a place like this * * if I could afford a real snake? * ***********************************************************************
