    Default Ebay seller that wont post abroad!

    I have had this in my mind for some time.

    I have seen many disappointed SRP members that cant bid on an item from a different country because the seller wont post internationally!
    I will put my name forward as a go between for anyone wishing to buy from England.

    A suggested process is to ask the seller if he will post to a different address from the bidder and explain that the other person is to post it on for you!
    ( I have posted items bought as presents to addresses different to the person paying) If he wont I can always bid for you.

    Postal prices can be found here! http://www.royalmail.com/portal/rm/c...mediaId=400347
    I am sure there would be SRP members in other Countries that would do the same.
    Maybe something could be placed next to the Avatar of participating members!

    I am in Ca-na-da (it means village!) and would be happy to do the same, though most Canadians are so polite, they won't refuse shipping...

    I also maintain a PO box in the USA and visit about once a month, so I can easily post items on from there.

    I've found that most vendors will ship abroad (even if the listing says they won't) if you ask them politely and you have good feedback.

    Tony/Matt, that is a great gesture. Even though as suziki mentioned, sellers are usually willing to make arrangements if asked politely, some can be just adamant about no international shipping. I've been bailed out by John and Randy in 2 such instances.
