To fellow steelers in Europe and Australia:
A lot of folks have emailed me about the high cost of shipping my books outside the USA. I went to the post office this morning with all my books to try to find cheaper options. The First Class Package rate seems to be about $10 cheaper than the International Priority Mail Flate-Rate envelopes I’ve been using. So I just changed my website shipping to reflect that. So my books are now $10 cheaper to ship to Europe/AU but will take longer to arrive. Sorry that this is the best I can do.

Thanks for doing that Andy
I've had my eye on more of your books for some time that I'd love to have, & I'll take another look.
However, the high rates for shipping are not the only factor.
Unfortunately, our carp exchange rate ATM, adds approximately another 30% to the total costs
& may be another reason for slow sales to far flung places.
The extra shipping time is not an issue for me!
