Ralf Toth wrote:Bacon, there's many other European sellers who regularly source from the US, besides me. (BTW, can recommend bacon as a great international seller )Really, every time I see some interesting stuff with "NO INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS ALLOWED" written all over the auction, I think: If you don't need my money? I don't care. If you want to maximize your profits, there is really no other way than to sell worldwide. I can't see any good reason, why international bidders should be excluded. Or do we behave more stupid than US buyers?

Thanks, I appreciate it :lol: I know you collect the rarer and more expensive stuff, so chances are that I probably cannot afford it. However, I'm starting to develope a taste for D&D stuff... If you have a nice copy of Blackmoor or Eldritch Wizardry on ebay (which is NOT a first printing ), I'll be tempted to bid.

I'm much quicker to bid on an auction that already states overseas shipping cost. OK, we all use pre-generated questions for shipping and such, but sometimes I am too lazy and just skip an auction, I'd have otherwise bid on.

You always have to go to the post office. . . even if you put a $9.00 postage stamp on a Flat Rate, the Post office still needs to scan the UPC code on the package and the UPC code on the customs form.
