  1. yes they do of course. I confirm
    since i live in slovakia 3 months i have ordered
    5 different items from several sellers from several
    amazon online stores (france, uk and italy) and always
    received my products with theirs usual excellent service
    and courtesy! A note: when you are ordering on amazon uk
    or com sometimes the order form will prompt you with a red
    alert message saying that “the item cannot be shipped to
    the address in slovakia”. To solve this issue simply rephare
    the address, maybe splitting it into two parts, in Address line 1
    and Address line 2 or contact the seller directly to ask them
    to send you the product to slovakia. It worked 🙂 Cheers

  2. Yay, jobs. Now if Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.fr or Amazon.de would only freakin’ SHIP PRODUCTS to customers in Slovakia…

    1. Amazon already DOES ship to Slovakia! They ship either via standard post or expedited shippers. You can even purchase used books and receive them in Slovakia. Amazon is doing great! Welcome to Bratislava!
