Since there's no Dutch participant, count me in!

By the way: how does the charity get money from this, when all the stamps have been used? Will they be sold or something? And what charity will I/we be supporting? Just being curious.

Cygnum,

What is the closest major airport to you? ***EDIT: Nevermind, I found it

***

Also folks... if you add yourself please put your name before Furry's at the end of the list. Remember, the model is going to end up back with him.

MYT DC-10 · 07-31-2010, 04:11 PM

Could you post a weight of the parcel? So I can get a estimate of the postage cost?

vince1159 · 07-31-2010, 04:26 PM

The further it goes the heavier it gets,until you get to the post office you can't be sure,but as Furry said it shouldn't be more than a couple of pounds ...

matt109 · 07-31-2010, 05:49 PM

This is fantastic - perhaps this could be annual?

The girl who runs it is a cleaner in my station. She places bags in the main offices that receives post. We throw the stamps into it. For every kilo of British stamps they get £3 and for every kilo of foreign stamps they get £13. The charity is for Leukemia-exact name unknown, but i know she started as her neice had it.

Once i post the model i will let you know what the weight was. From rough calculations i'm expecting to pay £1.92 to send it to Sweden.

fingers crossed the stamps shouldn't add to much to it.

Furry, all the international mail in the Netherlands goes via AMS, not RTM.

furryforest · 08-01-2010, 07:45 AM

Not to worry, it's more locations where it goes as opposed to the airports, its just to give us a rough number. Am i right in saying RTM airport would be closer to you than AMS?

ALEXAKOS · 08-01-2010, 09:07 AM

we need some Africa reps!I could arange a cairo trip too

Blue Angel No.5 · 08-01-2010, 02:25 PM

The Johnson Space Center would be a great setting for a photo op. Count me in!

Much closer. I'm 5km from RTM, 50 from AMS.
