Yes, the deal Martin proposes would ship 3 (or more) sumps to one persons house, who would then have to re-package and re-ship to the other two buyers.
A quick currency conversion, and splitting the 82 Euro 3 ways I get ~ $300 per sump (without the extra in-US shipping). At ~ 11lbs, shipping here is probably going to run about another $20-25 or so for each one sent from the original drop point. So the way I see it, the bloke who has to do all the logistics/handling/re-packaging and re-shipping gets his sump for 3 bills, the other two cough up another $25/per (or maybe a bit less?).

Looking at an individual sump - about $365 to your door. Either way it still looks like a lot of value for a very nice product.
I have to take a close look at my chassis and do a test fit of my EJ before I can say yea or nea. Not doing a VW conversion, my car has a mid-engine tube chassis which converges at the trans mounting face - need to see if there's room (below) for this sump.
