The easiest way is to pay by credit card. Pendraken does accept them
and
then they charge actual shipping costs instead of a flat 30% of the
order
(this is stated in the catalog information on the Pendraken page).
If that is not an option, you would have to get a money order or
something
similar made out in pounds sterling and then mail that to them. I
haven't
had to do this so I'd suggest you ask a local bank or post office. The
current exchange rate is 1 US Dollar to 1.65 British Pounds.
