I'd personally go pack &amp; track to countries where it can be used, and then use ECI or DHL for other countries as necessary. Good luck!</P> Sat, 16 Mar 2013 13:32:02 GMT https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Packaging-Shipping/International-Shipping-Suggestions/qaa-p/434431#M1940 *bad*angel* 2013-03-16T13:32:02Z
