Aaaaaaaand its off!
everything got boxed up and shipped out this morning USPS priority mail flat-rate shipping (per Lews recommendation)
the monetary donations towards this venture covered not only the international shipping cost, but it also covered enough insurance to replace everything.
I dug up some body caps and lens caps so the camera now has a body cap on it, and both lenses have front and rear lens caps (Sharons did already)
I also threw in a video cable, in case you want to hook the camera up to a TV or something.
well, there it is.
you should have your package in 6-10 business days Raj. no tracking number though, they said they don't track international packages.
please let us know when you get it, and post some pictures of you with the camera!
