Yea, but he has to have them X-Ray'd when he is transporting them, but no biggy the components will not be harmed :).


They could drop it off to a nearby post-office, or if there is a computer store like microcenter or something nearby he could ask them if he could ship the parts there and then pick them up.
 


do you think that they would let him go through the airport with thoose parts?

I don't know the legalities, if they make people claim stuff for tax purposes, how strict they are, if there's a certain limit. I think it varies, but so long as the value is under a certain amount most places don't bother. Otherwise they want it declared. But then who knows. I had a friend from australia send me a couple small gifts in an envelope and there was a big sticker on the outside with a declaration of the contents for customs purposes - but that was a package, not luggage.
