Cool! I like learning this kind of terminology. And I did just mean that it
was good for hauling stuff home from the home and garden shop, not that it had
hidden compartments or anything.

I'm just estimating, but when I punch 2200 lbs into the USPS international rate
calculator at http://ircalc.usps.gov/ it tells me "I'm sorry, but I cannot find
a way to mail your shipment to Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Try mailing
a smaller weight, breaking your order into several pieces, or contacting your
local Post Office to check on current sanctions." If I break it into 100 22
pound packages, I can get it out there for the low low price of $3,568 for
surface post or $10,145 for air post. How much of a hurry are you in?
Chris
