Hi Matias,
We do send books around the world. We usually send them in a flat rate box. The cost is $167 for the book and $50 for shipping for a total of $217 US. I don’t know if their are any additional charges when the book enters your country. You can pay by credit card (visa or mastercard).
Thanks,
