Well as some of you know I am in Afghanistan working with the Army. I was just hoping someone could send me out some mopar magazines. They dont stock anything MOPAR out here. I dont care if they are new issues, just need to get some MOPAR out here. I know its a pain to go to the post office but it would be great to get some good reading out here!

PM me if interested!! Thanks to all!!

just a question, for everybody ( a LITTLE BIT off thread )...

I know some ppl, maybe in the country could consider going to the post office some pain in the A$$, but also in the cities where normally post offices are not that far? I'm amazed some ppl on the ebay charging fees for GO TO THE OFFICE and send stuff.

Then coming back to thread... Here in Venezuela is hard to find Mopar mags ( beside if I do, they are EXPENSIVE ), so I can't help really. If were easy to find, WOULD BE A PLEASURE, and going to the postal office is not a pain even having to walk on around 7 or 8 block to do it! ;)

anyway we do know we have GREAT GUYS AROUND TO HELP!!! I have got LOT OF HELP on this board, you can't imagine! Sure you'll get some Mags into your mail soon!

Yeah, its really cheap to send stuff out here! I think its like 13 bucks to flat rate up to 70 LBS. I consider the post office a pain because I live in a larger city in California, so the lines are always out the door! Appreciate the reply Nacho.

Hey guys and gals,
I don't have any mopar mags myself but I want to help out fellow vet. Towards this end if there is a collection of mags to be sent I want to contribute to whatever the mailing costs may be. I've got a buddy, from whom we bought our Charger, who gets many mags and I'm hitting him up right now. All I need is an address to mail to. I'm in NorCal  :cheers:

Just put 10 magazines in the mail.  Post office said it should be there in 7-10 days.  Anything over 1lb you will have to fill out a customs form.  Cost about $1.00 per Magazine. Let me know when they arrive and enjoy!!!!!!!

HMMM!!! The custom form is simple, just fill it out as a gift. They have flat rate boxes that you can stuff up to 70 lbs and it cost under 15 buck! But hey what ever works. Thanks a bunch, only 7 days to wait!

I just put them in a big envelope, I will make sure you get them first, then I will try the flat rate box.  10 was all I could get in the envelope but pretty good variety.  Some are kinda old, hope you have not already read them.

I was at a car Show here in Las Cruces at New Mexico State University back in August 2010 sponsored by ASNMSU and the US Armed Forces -They said bring any donation we like so i brought a box of about 100 mopar magazines to send and still wonder if they ever got there - i Thought someone might need a mopar magazine to read -plus it would be easy to carry. hope they are out there somewhere

Curious too how long it took to get there.  My wife's an awesome cook & I can work this.  I'll tell her there won't be a load of rags for the shed if she whips up some cookies or somethin'?   ;D

69charger440

Well it took me 16 hours to get to Kuwait, then another 9 hours to get to Bagram, Afghanistan. 

Ah, cookies my wife sent some out but the melted all together, making the biggest cookie ball I have ever seen!! I really do appreciate all your guys help. This place is the pits. The Locals just make you sick. They wash there feet right out side the Mess hall when your getting ready to go inside and eat. Just gross!
