Where have you sent or received packages?

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

McMurdo Station?? I don't think anyone is going to top that one. :D

Nothing special much here at least that I can remember (Japan, China, UK, AUS, France, Hong Kong, Germany.) I've never had something go to-from Africa or the Middle East, Russia either or most of Asia.

I had a buddy stationed there for a few months, so I mailed him a harddrive of tv shows. If I remember correctly it was over $100 to ship less than half a pound.

I've had a bunch of stuff to and from western Europe, but like getting things from Asian and Oriental places that's pretty common. Outbound I did send something to a Racket member in Panama.

If any of you have sent things to me, well, there you have it for unusual. :mrgreen:

Other then a couple packages going to forward operating bases in the middle east I haven't really had to many international shipments.

But wait, he is an African prince from a collapsed nation who needs your help to transfer $300 million dollars!

After the Unemployment Quest kickstarter I was sending out packages ALL OVER THE PLACE. I think the weirdest country was Brunei, which I had never even heard of prior to sending a copy of my game.

I don't think I've ever received a package from anyplace too unusual. Most of my international deliveries come from Japan. Oh and back when I smoked, I once I got cigarettes from the Republic of Moldova, though I don't remember if they were shipped directly from there or not.
