Howdy folks. I stupidly left my laptop in KO. I need to get it sent back to the states, but it has been rejected at customs twice. Aargh... I'm already out $150, but I still need the thing.

How should I send it? Any info on Fedex?

Thanks in advance!

the reason it was rejected is probably due to the Battery... There has been cases where batteries exploded and or leak during international shipping. Most shipping companies will reject laptops... You can try Fedex , UPS etc.. and see if they take it. I think one of them..

But again... Either Ship it without the battery or if its a pc laptop and all you need is the info on the hard drive, Just remove the hard drive from the laptop and send the hard drive only... Hook up the hard drive to an other computer in the USA...
