PS.i would be willing to trade some of my cons for some of your's kind of thing ,don't know how a guy could work it out but just a thought.It's -32 c here and 2 ft of snow.getting cabin fever along with a bad case of GOLD FEVER!!ha ha

Well, I wouldn't call it crap. I'd be very surprised if let you send it here, unless it was sterilised on the way through.
