    Exactly.

    My 28 Kilogram LaserWorld Projector & Flight Case only cost 50 Euro from Germany by Air Mail.

    A circuit board at a few grams should only be a fraction of that.

    Norty,

    shipping with insurance is 55 Euro by DHL for Standart-Shipping.
    It is only the half without insurance but i never use this way...
    Try looking at Deutsche Post (who use DHL for international deliveries anyway). Using their online calculator I could send up to 2kg and 0.5m square for 9 euros from Germany to UK. I'm sure insurance wouldn't be 45 euros for £80 worth of product. Personally I'd say it was hardly worth insuring, most offer £50/50E insurance standard anyway.

    You are using Bonetti's defense against me, ah?

    I thought it fitting, considering the rocky terrain.

    Within the EU GLS is pretty cheap too:

    Yeah the shop can't be translated by Google translator but you can see the translation changes in the content of that shop website...

    So.....got the scanfail unit from guido (mylaserpage.de), but it does not come with any indication of how to wire it up, not even a basic pinout. If anybody could help me out with this, I would be thrilled.
    Thanks,
    Aaron
