Nice offer Matt, I will check the excess baggage fee ;)<br>I am happy to pay any which way makes life easiest for you - you have put in enough effort so far without any hastle over payment - just make sure you cover all your costs.<br>I will be meeting Grahame at some point to pick these up so will be happy to just split the total, or I can pay you dollars when I get to Atlanta ;)

Hi Grahame & thanks for the offer; makes it a lot easier on me.  I will see what the shipping options are & try to get them there on time if it does not break the bank.<br><br>Sy is handing off a HAL-effect-sensor bought on the Lotus sale to Doug for me so he needs to subtract the price of that from his tally.

I shipped your package this morning for $44.75 - You can track it at http://usps.com/.  Click Track & Confirm in the upper right-hand corner.  The tracking ID is ED600038435US (it might take up to a day to show up in their system).  Their computer said it would take 3 to 5 days but the clerk said 4 to 7 days.  The Midtown Atlanta post office is the only one that ever tells me next day air might not get there for 2 or 3 days.  They suck!  However FEDEX is too far away & I have never even been to the UPS store in this town, so I don't know where it is.  Next time I might try shipping from Kinko's, but they charge an arm & a leg for everything else.

Hi all in the buy.<br>I have wired Matt his funds, so here goes with the calculations.<br>The exchange rate was $1.8784 per GBP.<br>1)  A bank charge of £14.00 to make the transfer.<br>2)  Matt's shipping cost of $45.<br>3)  The cost of the kits.<br><br>1) Divided by 6 = £2.33<br>2) Divided by 6 = £3.99<br>So the costs to add to kits are £6.32 <br><br>Grahame.....$90 - £47.91 + £6.32 = £54.23<br>Paul...........$49 - £26.09 + £6.32 = £32.41<br>Dave..........$71 - £37.80 + £6.32 = £44.12<br>Sy.............$73 - £38.86 + £6.32 = £45.18 - £19.48 allready paid =£25.70<br>Dico...........$88 - £46.85 + £6.32 = £53.17<br>Stevie........$71 - £37.80 + £6.32 = £44.12<br><br>Apart from it being rather long winded does everyone agree the calcs or have I made mistakes.  With any luck they will arrive for me to bring to Donny, if not we will sort it later :)<br>

Grahame, thanks.  Is cash at Donington OK, or shall we hold off in case you have to mail them out?

Good news!  Your package has left these United States via Miami.  In trying to find out more, I ran across the information below which I trust you'll find helpful and pertinent...<br><br>In response to new Federal Aviation Administration restrictions, the Postal Service is adjusting the service it provides for the transportation of live animals.  The Postal Service will continue to accept live animals that do not require delivery within a 72-hour period, such as earthworms, lizards, snails, crickets, grasshoppers, and bees, which can move on ground transportation.  The Postal Service will provide limited service for live animals that require air transportation, such as day-old poultry, adult poultry and queen honeybees.<br><br>I bet dollars to donuts (doughnuts, you happy now?) you'll think of this when opening your packages!
