Hi there. I'm in Canada and I placed an order last night with Pololu. Here is=20 a copy/paste of the order: This order includes: 5 x #3101 A-Star 32U4 Micro (discounted $31.50 with coupon=20 BF14DBT3101) =3D 24.75 5 x #3150 P-Star 25K50 Micro (discounted $22.70 with coupon=20 BF14DBT3150) =3D 19.75 5 x #2595 Logic Level Shifter, 4-Channel, Bidirectional =3D 11.25 1 x #1190 Coupon discount BF14FORSHIPPING =3D -5.00 S & H: 13.95 Total: $64.70 USPS First Class International to Canada cost US $13.95. Also note the extra coupon #1190 which gives a $5 ship discount. The 4-channel Logic Level Shifter is the classic Phillips I2C level=20 shifter with a logic-level N-channel MOSFET and 2 resistors. You get=20 4 discrete channels for $2.25 in an easy-to-use small board. All I can suggest is that you contact Pololu and ask if they can do=20 any better for shipping to the UK. They have always been very=20 approachable. I'm assuming that USPS First Class International is=20 just as reliable to the UK as it is to Canada. dwayne At 03:35 AM 11/28/2014, Barry Walsh wrote: >Thanks for the tip Dwayne. > >I was tempted to get a few things.
