Just have someone here act as a go between for you and purchase it. Then send it to you via mail from the US. it'd have to be someone you trusted on here, obviously.

Fourth question might be "are you selling RPG stuff because you lack the verbal capabilities for playing it?".

Yeah, you've made your point ... :roll:

Look, the guy is clear in his instructions: he does not ship internationally. It's his decision; deal with it.

And let's not claim the moral high ground here. We all know those are fake questions to begin with.

I was only making a petit jeste at his specific referencing of certain nationalities being to blame. But, fair enough, I will desist from any further now.

I was referring to one specific post; I should have used the quote function.

I admit the guy is a little bit over the top ... it's one thing to mention "I do not ship overseas," and it's quite another to go on and on about it and specifically mention some nationalities. That is a little much.

OTOH, we've already got "shipping debate" threads here, and this thread tends to get derailed easily, so I was also getting concerned about that. I'd get us back on track if I could .. but I haven't done any TSR searches lately, so I'm completely useless in that regard.

Ah yes... I think I see what you were referring to Monsieur X :wink:

But back on track: one Groovy Poster. I would love to frame this one on my living room wall... But then I would never get laid again.

Still it does look nice.

Modelling clay (hmmm).

And, less eccentric.. This guy has some nice module multi-lots (like this one) for sale. They might not show up on an 'other items' search on ebay as he hasn't marked them for sale beyond the UK (i.e they do show up on ebay.co.uk). But some of his items are marked for worldwide - so I suspect he would sell these overseas too.

that's the new ebay view. Not sure yet myself

Is that a UK-only rollout for now? I'm not seeing that layout for any searches I do through the "regular" www.ebay.com site.

I can't say I like it. Not for the information layout, the tabs, or anything like that. Rather, because it's been designed with one particular screen resolution in mind and looks like crap otherwise.

Say what you will about the current view, but at least it scales well to different screen widths. With this new one, they've designed it assuming that you're running at a screen resolution of 1024-pixels wide.

Go above, and you get a giant white space to the right -- bad graphic design.

Go below, and you get a horizontal scroll bar -- bad usability design.

Ah, the good old days of assuming a given screen size. Next you're going to be seeing an animated button saying "Get Microsoft Internet Explorer Now!", mark my words.

Yup. Think it might be .co.uk only thus far. Agree with the points above.

GAZ1-14 - but beware 0 rated seller

You can never have too much of something you didn't need in the first place.

I am not 100% sure but it looks like a 1st print DMG in this lot.

Bit of a heavy lot perhaps, but nice.
