>From the Toystore

Postal Rates have been going out of sight lately! It is really tough when I have to quote shipping rates that are higher than the cost of the item I am shipping. To get around the cost of shipping, ARCI has set up a dropbox account so that instead of sending a hard copy of back issues, I will give you a password so that you can download an ISO image of a DVD of  the back issues. That will take care of the shipping cost of the back issues and the FDIM Proceedings when I get them scanned in. There is nothing I can do about shipping the coffee mugs though! They will have to wait til the hamfests come back!

When you order, just be sure to let me know it is for  the image file, and where you want me to send the password.
