Hi Erez,

I live in Australia, so I don't know what the situation is in your neck of the woods. According to my neigbour (who is a postal worker) all mail coming to Australia from North America comes by Air whether specified by the sender or not. So now when i buy things on the net I ask for surface mail, things are usualy here within a week or two and I save my $$$.

Perhaps you could ask your local postal service what the situation is in your area.

Cheers,

Paul
