Yikes! I went to the UPS website and started noodling around with some options there, starting with a 6 inch x 6 inch x 3 inch, 1 pound box to Germany or the UK. So far, the cheapest options I've been getting start at $85.

Yeah, that one is much better. I've just checked their website, and their slowest shipping option does provide the ability to send relatively small, lightweight packages to Germany at around the $25 level.

Sounds more reasonable to me

And yes it was USPS.

But have to correct me regarding batteries. What I could fetch from old conversation is that it must be declared (but should not raise costs)...

It seems to me absolutely crazy that such a lovely treasure trove sells for mere peanuts but the shipping costs bang thru the roof

Yeah, at a price of less than $4 per N800, this certainly looks like a steal. Well, I've got a bid in now, we'll have to see how high it goes...

Well, there were obviously several people with their eyes on this trove. I stayed in the bidding up to about the $60 range, but in the last few seconds the winning bid ran up to $142.50. So some folks do see the value in the N800!
