Shipping from the USA

Would any of our American friends reading this care to help us British out with USA located eBay auctions that refuse to ship outside the United States?

I've PM'd Volleydan a couple of times to take him up on the standing offer of shipping but never got a reply. :-( Not a problem by the way. I'm sure the guy doesn't want to live in the post office :)

Just wondered if anyone else could help us out? Usually if there is a US shipping only auction I'm interested in I just message the seller and it's 50/50 on whether they agree to ship or not. Most of the time they do :)

There's just the odd one every now and then that I'd really like who refuses to ship, then the auction ends with no bids at all. Frustrating....

I like your thinking on this one Eddie. I'll fly over to America, collect the item, fly back to the UK, drive to your house, leave it with you, then you post it back to me. It's so simple, I feel rather foolish for not thinking of it myself.

Brilliant. I'm off to eBay to bid on the USS Flagg right now. :-D

No no no, that won't work at all. You'll have to travel by boat or it won't be shipping, will it?

Possibly, if you really really really inflate the tyres.

Hey what's up!! I can help out with this. Most sellers don't set up exclusion lists so you can still bid. If you win, just fill in the ship to address with mine. I get it, then ship to you, simple. PM me.

Hi

If you need anybody else I can help you out too. Maybe we can help each other because there's a lot of Palitoy AF sellers on ebay.co.uk that will not ship to the USA.
