Dealing with Overseas Customers
By Richard Oliver

Although we never deal in items under $100 or $200, we've had
continuing success shipping overseas, and no problems with payment.

We require payment for any non-North American shipment to be made via
bank wire transfer, with the buyer paying the associated fees at both
ends (our bank charges $15 for an incoming wire transfer).  Prior to the
transfer of funds we obtain a quote from our packer/shipper so that we
know exactly what the shipping-related costs will be.  That amount (and
the $15 wire fee) is added to the purchase price and, in a day or so,
the funds are sitting in our account.

While we realize that this is not a likely solution to the sale or
purchase of piano rolls, it's a simple and guaranteed method for larger
items that has worked excellently for us over the years.
