I might make an exception for a Browncoat, Calhoun, but international postage has gone up a lot in the last couple of years. It might not be economical for you to have to pay that much for shipping.
I buy books through abebooks.com all the time and get books regularly from the UK and US for not too bad a postage price.
The ones I was interested in are Lewis-Narnia, Frank Herbert, Hamilton & Clarke. What do you think the postage for those 4 bundles to Australia postcode 2278 would be?

Hey, EC. Just ordered the Frank Herbert lot, and I'm fair jumping up and down in my seat in anticipation (terribly undignified, actually). I've read depressingly little by Herbert outside of the Dune series (to which I return every few years, and a large number of quotes from which I've transcribed into a blank book I got for Christmas one year. Periodically, I turn to random pages and strive to live the message that impresses itself on my consciousness [seldom the same, no matter how many times I land on a given quote]. Weird, huh?).
Anyway, FWIW, these books go to a VERY appreciative home, where books are treated FAR better than jewelry (what little of it there is in the aforementioned home). May the space so liberated in your home be put to fruitful use, friend!

Calhoun, the Herbert books have already been purchased by Noocyte, but I will check on the other three and get back to you. No guarantee someone else won't snag them before then though.

Damn, someone's been busy buying books this morning! In just the ten or fifteen minutes I was checking other things around the net, a ton of the book lots have been purchased. Haven't had the time to see if they were all by the same person, but the Peter Hamilton and Narnia books are no longer available, in addition to fourteen others. Not many left after that.
EDIT: Not sure how long this will be the case, but as of this moment, 6:10AM US Central time, the only lots left are Asimov, Clarke, Crichton, Crowley and del Rey.

I hope a certain someone reads this. I do appreciate all the books just purchased, and I will ship as quickly as possible but it will probably have to be in multiple packages. BUT, it would also be nice if that same certain person would give me feedback on the DVDs purchased over a month ago.

And now, Asimov, Clarke and Crichton are the only ones left.

I guess the bump worked. The Asimov books have sold, now just Clarke and Crichton left.
