so that's about $20 USD for the both of them? I never shipped outside US, any idea what I'd be lookin at for a grand total for both games and shipping to USA?

 Also 1 more question. What kind of condition does the site usually deal with? (case/manual/ artwork/original disc case)

no idea about shipping to the US, never done it before, but whenever ive bought anything from them, either online or on the high street, they usually tell you if it has the manual/artwork etc.

EDIT: wiggy, PM'd you the NES list!

:( I just looked through Google to see how much it would cost to send some games from UK to USA....I don't think I'll be able to do that.

(not sure if i used the calculator right but it seems it would be $30+ USD just to send the 2 games)

I believe Royal mail packet post to North America stands at around £5 up to 500 grams - that should cover those games - so around $7.50 by todays rates.

I'm currently situated in Sweden, but have a best friend that lives in the US and we do a lot of "over the border"-game shopping in this way, and I'd love to help anyone that needs help.

I use Swedish/UK/German ebay, but pretty much any of them work for me.

The up-side here is; I visit the US at least once a year (next trip dated to december 10th 2012), so if somebody is willing to wait to pull down the shipping to nearly nothing, we can arrange something that way, too. Hit me up!
