[Wanted] US citizen to forward a parcel

Good day dear sudomodders,

I am looking for a US Citizen to mail me something to EU, Germany.
There is a Shell for the Wii U Gamepad that i can only get that cheap and with buttons in the united states.
Domestic shippings are free, but they do not offer international shipping.

So, would someone be kind enough to buy this product and ship it to me to germany?
Of course i will cover the costs.


Here is the link, if you are interested: Gamepad Housing

Thank you

That depends. The original is only available without any driver board, so if i am going to use this one, i will have to find a driver board or do it myself.
Maybe it would be easier/cheaper to just get a 6,2 inch display.
But this project is for when i finished the GBZ.

Hi,

thanks for your reply. In fact my question wasn't the best. What I wanted to ask is if this was to replace the shell of a "broken" device or if it was for modding. In case of modding, do you know witch LCD you will place there?

This is on my list to think about it... I need to explore more, but I liked the idea.

Lets keep in touch...

Yes, it is going to be a Rasbperry or Orange Pi project.
I want to use only the shell plus buttons and then create a different device.
wermy had the idea and i loved it.

For the display, see last post from me regarding this.

We can keep in touch, but still, i need someone to send it to me, first :D

Yeah, found that, too. But i thought that maybe there is a cheaper shipping method for us citizens to germany, so it would not total 40$.
But thanks for trying to help here :)

I can send it to you but if you could get the actual weight of it I can figure out the cost to send it to you. Anything over 13 ounces is expensive as hell.

No, this was new to me, thanks!
But unfortunately, this would only be a few dollars less for much higher shipping time :(
