I don't know the shipping costs, but Doree might (CCed). So an interesting question is, whether a PC with LCD panel and peripheral devices is more expensive than shipping the box forth and back. Let's assume the LCD Panel costs 75 Euros¹, the PC ~250 Euros² and the periphery 15 Euros³. Make the prints cost 100 Euros and add another 70 Euros for the overhead and we're at 500 Euros. Doree: How is that in relation to the shipping costs?
Having the box doing a round trip costs ~180 Euros (126 GBP to European money is 150 Euros, plus 20% VAT makes 180). So we can have the box shipped two times forth and back before we spent more money than actually buying new stuff. I haven't really thought about it, but it seems as if it might make sense to not ship the box often but have a separate action kit instead. Especially for recurring events like FOSDEM and potentially LinuxTag. I guess it's up to the board to decide whether this is useful information and requires any further action. Cheers, Tobi
