Glad to ship overseas at actual international postage cost. Please add $1 extra for a Canadian address. I'll refund any excess postage over $2.
Please ask me if you have any questions. Almost all the magazine are in really nice condition---I'll make a note of anything that stands out. I'll describe the books as quickly and shortly as I can.
I'll take personal checks, cash or paypal.
