Post by: orihalcon on Thu, 05 February 2015, 21:55:55

Tempting. Don't you happen to know how much is shipping of 107 to Ukraine?

Just checked USPS.com. For a 10-11lb package, looks like about $85 for international priority which should take around 2 weeks. 

The old suggestion is if you happen to have any USA contacts that could bring it with them next time they visit, that would work out well since I ship to the USA at no additional cost. I know this isn't an option for everyone though.

Could you estimate shipping for one of the Unicomp 122 keyboards to Oregon?

[EDIT] Sorry, I now see in the post above the US shipping is free.

Yep, I guess so... Well, I'll think about it. Sadly my American friends don't travel much and when they do - they travel not in my country :( Thanks for your answer, and good luck to you. Maybe if I'll save enough money there will be some 107's left for me :)
