Where can I buy it online with overseas shipment?

I keep on thinking on what should be given to my wife by Santa and...
Why not an ereader?
I'd buy her the PRS350 with a lighted cover.
Anyway - there's a problem with shipment.
It has to be shipped to Poland (Europe).
Amazon delivers their kindles here for as much as only 20$ (and it comes in less than a week). But they do not ship Sonys...
Adorama wants almost 100$ for a shipment (!).
Best Buy ships only to US.
B&H hasn't lowered the prices, so prs350 still stands for 179$ (instead of 149).
SonyStyle ships only to US (although I'm negotiating).
Any other ideas, where could I buy this?

I bought a Sony from Borders (www.borders.com) in the US for delivery to the UK. Delivery was very cheap I recall.

Not sure if they will deliver to Poland, but might be worth checking?

Borders have delivered to the UK and France, so they should deliver to Poland - all three countries are in the EU.

I send them an email asking, what exactly is this cover:
http://www.borders.com/online/store/...u=027242808942

(blue?pink?black?)

as I can't find it in the description

Still waiting for the answer, though.


btw - is it only me that thinks Borders' web site is a disaster?


EDIT:
No possibility of choosing Poland in the Shipping address panel. Paraguay, Philippines, Portugal - that's all for "P".
I checked the shipping costs for Germany (as it's close) - less than 10$!

Have you personally order from Borders ? I tried to, but kept getting an error about my billing or payment information, thought the latter is correct and I don't know what could be wrong with my billing information, exception it's in France...

Yes. I ordered my PRS-650 from Borders. I ordered it from France, for delivery to France. So you should be able to do the same. Poland is in the EU, so the OP should be able to order a PRS-350 from Borders, unless of course they have changed their shipping policy.
I'll send you a PM containing the contact details of the person in Customer Service who helped process my order.

My guess is it'll be black. When I ordered the cover with light from them, I specifically requested black and that's what I received.

I'll call them in the evening. Technically there's no option buy sth with shipment to Poland via their website, maybe it'll be possible via phone.
BTW - there are several members of EU missing on the list of countries they are shipping to.

Been there, done that and got the T-shirt! To save wasting your time and causing yourself a lot of hassle, I strongly recommend that you read the PM that I sent you, before you phone them.

They have assured me that they want international business. Anyway, good luck!

Oops, sorry I mentioned it! Didn't mean to get your hopes up. Did they give any reason why not?
