If you are not planning on shipping it back to QRP-LABS for repair, it is common to at least include 'your' country in such a request for help.  Even a callsign would give some indication of where you are and what it would take (shipping and even timing) to exchange the broken/repaired unit.  
 
It has been my experience repair requests are often replied with a great number of 'willing' people.
Unfortunately, at this time, I am not able to be one of those who will have time in the near future.

Yes, they seem to be willing to, but Turkish Government does not allow the radios to arrive.

Get an RA number from QRP Labs (email them)

Remove QDX from its case and wrap it well and put in a box.

Customs declaration:

1 Part for repair, leave HS Tarif Blank - they will code it - value put $40 or similar
If you get ra number put it on there too

Also,FEDEX will do all the appropriate return paperwork but a little more expensive shipping - but reliable!

No no no no... Just NO!!

Theoretically yes. But practically: recently several people tried to ship me something. The same thing happened three times. In each case it got rejected as a personal import and routed to commercial import procedures. That costs $hundreds. So i decline and it gets sent back. Of course I do it when I import 300kgs of QDX and QCX-mini enclosures, PCBs, 50,000 toroids from Diz, 100,000 NP0 capacitors from Digikey etc. But it isn't feasible anymore for something small like a QDX PCB. So we have to find alternative solutions, you should raise a helpdesk ticket and we'll take it from there.
