yes, but have someone interested in it.  I would guess packaging and shipping to Europe will be $250USD. If you are still interested let me know and I will get a firm quote.

I recently shipped a NeXT laser printer to Australia.

40lbs & too big to go Priority Mail - so it had to go "Global Express Guaranteed."

$370.00 (but it got there FAST)!

Wow! I can't even imagine spending that much just to ship a printer.  I love my "NeXT" stuff, but I think I'd have to draw a limit if shipping was that crazy. :-)

It may have been the last "brand new in box" unopened, factory sealed NeXT printer in existence.

Shipping cost the buyer as much as he paid for the printer.

Well, a "new, never been opened" printer would be a little different. :-)  I'm on my second NeXT Laser printer now, but I primarily just use the laser printer already available on my network vi lp.  It works just as well.

Shipping 'across the pond' is brutally expensive. If it goes 'ground' it goes by ship and that is still expensive and takes months.

We sent a small package to Jenne in Switzerland ground and it took almost 2 months and still cost quite a bit we looked at air and it was really expensive.

A printer or monitor is pretty darn heavy so I can imagine it costing that much.

The "ship"-shipping with 7-9 weeks delivering time was the cheapest one, sending a cube to europe had cost $55. USPS have deleted that service, now you have to pay 3-4 times the old price.

Hmm wonder what surface means then.

I have the details of Jenne's package it was a PPC upgrade card kit in the original box with manuals which added weight, I think we can still get surface shipping here in Canada. This was sent Nov 20 and arrived just around Xmas so that wasn't that bad.

Package was 11.5x 8x3.25 inches and weighed 3.35 lb.

Cost breakdown,

Xpresspost International (4 business days) = $71.51
Small Packet Int Air                                  = $46.55
International Parcel Surface                       = $37.26
Small Packet int Surface                            = $19.25

A Cube would be a LOT bigger than the little package we sent out so it would be interesting to see what that would cost now.
