@993anorak Excellent, Gilles. I am very happy for you!
I just packed everything up in a box that was a bit larger, 24"X16"x10". I needed the extra room for packing material. I'll get you prices tomorrow. Please send me your email address.
Keep 'em on the Road,
Ron

Hello Gilles:
I forgot to add the books to the brochures when I measured and weighed them. Sorry.
To my best understanding, FexEx will cost ~$235 USD +box and packing and United States Post Office will cost ~$187 +box and packing to La Rochelle 17000 France.
Shipping could take 4-10 days.
Please let me know if you have any other questions and again, thank you.
Best,
RM
@993anorak OK. Let me know if you have any other questions and I will be happy to ship it to La Rochelle if you are the high bidder.
Best,
RM
Many thanks, indeed.
The town where to ship is : La Rochelle (17000) FRANCE
Kind regards, Gilles
@993anorak Hello and thank you for your inquiry, Gilles.
FedEx Economy from Naples, Florida USA to Paris, France (I don't know where you live in France) was $216 USD. I also looked up rates from the US Post Office and United Parcel Service and they were $30-60 USD. The weight will be about 18 pounds and the box should measure about 16"X12"X6". These prices do not include ~$10 USD for a box and packing materials. I will only charge you my actual shipping expense.
Thank you and let me know if you have any other questions.
Good Luck!
RM

Hello and thank you for viewing my collection of hard-to-assemble Porsche Sales Brochures and Books AT NO RESERVE.
I spent 55 years assembling this collection and now it's time for a new caretaker.
Most of the brochures and books are in new/rarely opened condition. A few have cover scrapes or a corner fold but nothing that bad. There is also some good duplication on some of the more desirable brochures and booklets.
Please let me know if you have any questions and I will respond quickly.
Also, please take a look at my other fantastic NO RESERVE AUCTION of 55 mostly mint posters from the world renowned Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix on PCARMARKET.
This early collection starts on Year 2 of the PVGP, 1985, and covers 18 different years of racing, ending in 2002 with one additional artist signed 2011 Porsche poster. 6 of the posters are artist signed or by racing legend, Bobby Rahal. Enjoy.
