I don't know... I buy from Amazon all the time and I have bought from some UK dealers who charge insanely low shipping prices which I don't know how they do it... it all depends on the dealer...

However I have never bought anything internationally from Amazon itself. The Amazon UK site won't ship to America or at least they didn't.

No they don't ship internationally; I tried a couple years back to no avail and I don’t imagine .co.uk ship internationally either.

I had a look through and found Amazon Global which seems to ship internationally.
Thanks for helping guys. :)

If you want to know add something to basket and start the checkout process. When you select your address it will tell you A.) If they deliver internationally (If not it will say delivery is unavailable to this address) and B.) You'll be able to see how much it will cost, i've seen things at $50 for international delivery, and i've also seen cheap delivery too.

It's worth a try but it's not the most reliable service there is.
I'm gone! How tragic. It's like i'm here but asleep, only i'm not, i'm gone. Well, i might pop back when bored. If you need me though, or want me you can find me at www.ImWithGeek.com

Like Van I buy from US dealers via Amazon and they charge low postage rates.

Here's a question... how come US dealers through Amazon can charge low rates, yet US dealers on eBay charge laughable postage rates to the UK?

So basically, yes, Amazon Do do international orders.

Amazon sets the limits of what they will reimburse dealers. On eBay there is no shipping reimbursement. Most of the prices charged are what the common person would be charged to ship to you. Also most dealers on Amazon are businesses with business accounts which afford cut rates on shipping.

Van, there is no way a decal sheet will cost £12 to cross the atlantic. It is the same size and weight as a letter. They charge what they like on eBay and claim it's eBay forcing them to do it. I can get the same things from Japan or China post free!

Yes it does. Here, we are forced to send a package or letter Priority mail. A priority cost for envelope is $16.95 before anything else. If you want tracking you need to send it registered which is another $12.99 on top of that. Now do the math?

Japan and China do not require this from their end. Which is why things are held in US customs longer than most. You might think it's expensive but you want this. You want security and reassurance that your items are being handled not just with care but also not opened. A registered item cannot be opened unless the scans show something questionable within.

You pay for security and protection.
