Maybe I had to say "media mail" instead of book rate? You hav eto spell things out for some people. But, I asked her to weigh it and tell me how much it would cost to send it to London, first class AND book rate. She said there's no book rate anymore unless you are sending a lot of books. I thought it was strange, but didn't question her further. She might have gone postal on me if she thought I didn't believe her. It would probably take a month to get there if it didn't go first class. When I sent it all over the states, I used first class and it cost under $2, but I can't remember the exact amount.
