Sandy, it was very difficult. I have got contact to a young Russian in the Moscow region. It is not possible to ship it with mail due to customs laws, the high costs, and the high risk. But we have found a carrier who manages moves from Russia to Germany. He has brought the set to Germany for 130 Euros, which is very cheap, and he has paid 20 Euro customs fee. I have got the original paperworks with customs declaration of this set for clearing of exporting to Germany (of course in Russian language). For me, this was a little sensation. And I am very thankful for the patience of the young Russian in Moscow.
