Well I thought it would be acheivable, I've imported some heavy automotive parts too. The biggest setback I encountered was that most international courier comanies refuse to deal with private individuals. I got referred to a few different shipping agents and made several enquiries based on internet searches and recommendations- most replies were of the 'not interested' variety, and the few quotes that I did get were ridiculous, in the order of $400 to $500 for sea freight, and that was with me dropping a packaged item at their offices and picking it up from the wharf at this end. I've gone off the idea of trying to pick up a dividing head while we are in England this year as I could see myself spending a lot of time (bearing in mind we are going there to spend time with my daughter) and then being unable to send the thing out of the country.
