You have to pay a shipping tax on a book? Is it more like a customs fee or what? I trade numismatic items from time to time with a collector in Timisoara and have not had any issues so far with stuff going back and forth via registered.

What if the catalog is a year or two old now, and has no high value, would that work better?

BTW I have really gotten into the Romanian numismatics, I think the banknotes and coins from there are undiscovered and unappreciated treasures. Now I am collecting all pre-1948 banknotes from there. I want to do the 20 Lei in gold at sometime too.

Your friend is lucky because he lives in Timisoara, which is a recognized cultural center, together with Cluj, which are towns close to the western border and which get occidental influences easier than the eastern part of the country.

With the paper Romanian money you'll have some hard time getting the pre 1900 ones because they're very scarce. As for the gold coins there are just a few years so you won't have that much trouble, but they are very expensive.

Strange. If you buy, say, the 20th century Krause* from Amazon.de, it costs about €48; the 21st century Krause** is about €22. Shipping to addresses in DE is free, and according to this page http://www.amazon.de/gp/help/custom...ersandkosten , shipping to addresses in the "Übriges Europa" area is about €6.
