Hi Martin & List,

I do know that there are many strange circumstances for shipments to
Germany. One method of shipping will eliminate a service (e.g.
insurance) offered with another shipping method. The best way to find
out is to check: http://www.usps.com

It's usually pretty accurate giving quotes, but it depends on the postal
clerks training qualifications also. Many times I get different answers
from different people. This website might be very helpful for other
list members outside the U.S. Just one of the many things a meteorite
collector must consider.

I hope it turns out well!

Take care,

Mark
