I think some people have a problem filling out the little green customs
declarations. In any of my Ebay sales, I've never sent a package to PR.
Though a territory / US Commonwealth, I don't know if one is required
or not. However, I'll ship any non-restricted item world-wide. After
all, the buyer pays the postage.

I bought several years worth of "Radio Constructor" magazines from a guy
in Britain some time ago. His initial post on ebay.uk said that the
offer was good only for shipping within the UK. I emailed him stating
that I'd be willing to pay whatever the Royal Post rate was to get these
shipped to the US. He agreed, and postage was about three times the
cost of the auction. It was worth it to get these magazines though.
The Sir Douglas Hall construction articles are truly classic!

I'm KP4 and with the Alaska and Hawaii boys....whats this preoccupation
with CONUS?
If UPS Ground is the only available shipping option then thats
understandable due to their limited coverage. But via the US Post
Office its no more expensive to send an item from NJ to
Alaska/Hawaii/PR/APO or Micronesia than it is to California and if the
buyer is paying then why the restriction?
Sorry for the rant. I just encounter this so often and when I inquire
the answers range from "too much paperwork" to "no problem, you're
paying the postage". Maybe its just an old 48-stater habit to say
"continental US"
