Hey guys, whats the deal with shipping stuff there? Do they give you some kind of price break when shipping stuff to military overseas? I probably have about 30 mags to send.

terry, I am assembling a small package right now. I picked up some dupe copies of Jet magazine at the middle school library! :) (Not the magazine for Jet pilots :) :) )

The address is a US military base address, so I am pretty sure you will pay U.S. domestic postage only. They (the military) will forward it on to Afghanistan. I am not sure how long that will take, nor how rigorous their screening process is. MJ
