Send the seller a message and ask if he will ship to your country. It never hurts to ask.

I've found randy's advise true in many cases.
And if he will not, send me a PM. Depending upon your location I might help. These are great hones, so expect to pay! The reserve price is over $200. I know because that is what I bid. As a native Iowan I love them!!
I've purchased many items for a fellow shaver in Paris on another fourm, and we have had a good relationship. I'll bid on it for you up to your limit and I don't charge shipping. Just pay me instead of the seller. I pay the seller if we win, then you pay me.
You can verify all this by looking at the auction.
I can give references if you would like for my friend in Paris.

Hello Hawkeye5,
thanks for your reply, advice and fantastic offer! That is very generous of you.
Although I am new here I have read many of your posts and already formed a good opinion of your knowledge and helpfulness :D

Did you actually bid $200 on that hone? Currently the highest bid is $91 with the reserve not having been met.
If this will go for more than $200 it is beyond my reach.

Yes I have sent PMs to sellers before for a shipping quote, and some have been very helpful.
However with this seller I cannot send a PM as he has disabled any reply option from buyers :(

I really appreciate your offer Hawkeye5, and maybe I will take you up on that offer in the future.
Shane

ps You must have an impressive Frictionite collection living in Iowa!!
pss I have contacted "Sham-da-man" honemeister and he has agreed to help me out with a Frictionite :P

How did you manage that? My home town is also Melbourne, but I am currently living in Barcelona Spain.
An expensive service?
Very nicely done :D
