my plan

I'm going to order my books through Amazon, after getting the list of books I need from University Books Oniline. I'll have Amazon ship the books to Saba; after some price checking I found that U Books Online charges an arm and a leg for shipping.

I'll be bringing the mini-moores, First Aid for Step 1, and BRS Anatomy with me in my carry-on.

Good luck, all!

mini-moore

Mini-moores is actually called "Essential Clinical Anatomy", it's the smaller more concise version of the large "Clinically Oriented Anatomy" also by Moore.

Buying Books

I have been looking around, and It seems that the website www.addall.com has some of the best prices. Hope this helps. I don't know about shipping to Saba, but it searches a bunch of bookstores and finds the best price, plus it includes amazon and half, where other people had said to look.

amazon shipping

I am having difficulty sending my books to Saba through Amazon. Saba is not a choice on the web site, and neither is San Maarten. Has anyone successfully shipped books this way?

The "nation" is Dutch West Indies...try that. Saba and Sint Maarten are the names of the islands only.

I think it's the Netherland Antilles.

shipping books

Micro is right, but the US postal system or Fedex or UPS will still deliver to the Dutch West Indies as well if you put that on a package. Try this:

Make sure to put the "Dutch West Indies" in there so they don't accidentally (absent-mindedly) ship them to the Netherlands.

I also sent you a PM about what I'm planning on doing about books. Good luck!
