Reverse digital mule wanted, USA to Medellin - no swallowing required

It costs about $180 (Fedex) to $450 (Skybox) to bring a computer from USA to Medellin.

I am looking for someone coming from the USA to Medellin or Bogota in the next 5 weeks, who in return for some pocket money ($60?) would bring in a very light portable computer. Given sufficient notice, I could have this delivered to their US address from where they are leaving for Colombia, and collect this person from the airport (car or motorcycle), take them to their hotel/home, while the first few Campari sodas (or Caiprinhas) would be on me.

Please PM me if interested.

if you want i can give u the number to a "door to door" courier service in Miami. It will be much cheaper than fedex for sure.

I met a lady in the Post Office and I saw here mailing a box of stuff to Colombia and I asked here if the stuff actually gets there? She told me a surprisingly "yes" and that she had been doing it for 2 years. Believe me I was shocked to here her say yes.
