So win a US auction today, have it sent within the US to someone. Win another in a week, have it sent to the same person. Eventually you build up enough of a pile to have that person send on to you.

For RPG, hundreds of products (not translations from US/UK products but original RPGs/Supplements) were made during this era too. I guess that after US, France is the country that released the greater number of original RPG books (not translations), even before UK.
