I found a typewriter that I am looking to buy; it's only 15 euros, however shipping it overseas to the states may be a very big challenge for my wallet. If anyone is willing to help in this endeavor, please let me know.

More importantly, what would a rough estimate on shipping be? If necessary, the keyboard can be extracted and the typewriter portion discarded :(

I did a rough estimate, and it should be around 350 euros, awesome... Quite bummed that I can't get this typewriter

edit i'm dumb, i was looking at express shipping.

That's not as bad I was expecting, and would be willing to pay that. Now the only issue would be to find a proxy. The typewriter weighs roughly 15kg.

Pm me the details, I could proxy it as long as I can use the same package it gets delivered to me.
