<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Lars Jensen mentioned that the high price
(7 Pounds) for imported Gemstone english language prestige comics in
the UK should not be unfairly compared.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>That price amounts to the cover price plus
about 5 or 6 Dollars for shipping, and so it is not exhorbitant unless
the seller is set up to use bulk transport.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Gemstone does not have overseas subscriptions,
however now in the internet era, english language comics may be ordered online
to be sent to almost anywhere. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>There are many sites that sell comics, but I prefer
newenglandcomics.com located in Boston, perhaps the closest location across the
pond to Europe and further east, and they seem to have the
quickest delivery time of about </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>a week.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>They use the U.S. Postal Global Priority Envelope
and charge 10 dollars for shipping, but the envelope holds about 10 comics
meaning</FONT> <FONT face=Arial size=2>that if many comics are ordered
together, the shipping cost could be only one dollar each. Aside from shipping,
this site and most others charge just the cover price or less if several
comics are ordered at one time. </FONT></DIV>
