[Milsurplus] I'd never have thunk it

[Jon Oldenburg]

You guys have been getting screwed by someone. I just sent a  3 pound parcle to Spain via air mail @ $17.50, and have done similar shipments to most of Europe & Austriala & New Zeeland also. Be sure to specifie Air Post to avoid the 6 to 12 week time frame of surface mail
