At the moment you can't buy Pro-Jumps in America, try getjumpingstilts.com, they sell various models that will get you jumping around ;)

What's with the cheesy poll  :-\

To be honest, if you can buy them from the country you are in its no point having them shipping from England as for the amount extra you pay on postage you could buy yourself some yummy safety gear  ;)

If he can get a UK company to ship over to America for $100 which is about £50 I think its a bargain  ;) But to be honest I don't think any UK company will post to the US.

parcel force wont deliver the bocks as the dimensions exceed the maximum allowable. I know, because I already tried to send mine this way to NZ. They would have to be shipped by a courier company, which is expensive.

Had you thought about stripping them down to send them ET (I'm sure Sprog would do this)
You could then fit them in a 1mtr x 300mm x 300mm box and that would go for just over £100 but take 28 days

Having said that you could probable sell them take the cash add the £100 postage and buy a new set

I only asked DK again as I was getting over £100 too  ;)
They would charge more than £5-70 within the UK let alone the USA  :D

I paid £120 to get them there in 4 days by courier..... plus pads and camera tripod, no stripping down necessary

Like I said they wont post them as they exceed the maximum allowable dimensions, that is in the box they come in. If you stripped them down like Jason has suggested you could get them posted......
