USPS Bans Shipments of Batteries
The only way for them to go internationally is via a courier. Big bucks! |
Ouch!
That means it will probably cost more for shipping than the buyer paid for the used Kindle. Of course you can always ship in an unmarked box and fail to tell them what it is. With my luck I would get busted for trying to mail a Li-Ion battery to the UK while the guy behind me in line gets away with mailing Semtex are C-4 to Germany!
