| I will gladly ship anywhere.I think that the going rate be $10 USD And the buyer to pay all the shipping at whatever rate they want.And the shipper is not responsible for bad merchandise.I could test the item out.But if there is a problem. I fell there should be more money involved if i have to deal with fixing problems. |

This is a good idea. Too many clowns don't understand how to "ship out of USA" i.e. fill in one extra form on paypal shipping. SO i'd be able to help.
This may work very well with Craigslist, Kijiji locals, musicgoround store deals etc, rather than just eBay.
I helped a friend get a rare combo amp, I charged $50.00 on top of the actual shipping charge because I had to go get it and pack it, but HE did all the negotiating for the seller, and he paid for it (emailed me the money) so I was never out anything, just time to make sure the amp was what the seller said it was. |

| I have found a set of headphones I would like to buy from the US. There are some sellers of these headphones willing to ship internationally but they want up to $56 for shipping. The headphones cost $37.97. The seller charges tax for the following states (Seller charges sales tax for items shipped to: CA*(8.75%), MA*(5.0%), NY*(8.75%), TN*(9.25%) ), so I'd prefer to avoid that if possible. Anybody willing to looking into helping me aquire a set of these? |

Unfortunately, I 've only had one or two on the list actually email me their information. I guess I won't be able to act as a clearing house for anything like inter-member communication or what not. So, whoever wants to help someone else will have to do it here on the thread. Of course I can't guarantee that those who signed up will frequent the thread to see who wants help, which is why I initially saw myself as the POC for it all.
Anyway, DasBeef, it looks like there's only 3 USA members to help you out. PM the other two & if they can't/won't, I'll do your deed.
1. DeFrag - Washington, USA
2. Right Foot Boss - Michigan, USA
6. zerksies - New Jersey

I wanna thank Bossarea for helping me out.
Won a brochure on eBay but the seller thought it was very difficult to ship from the UK to Germany. So Bossarea provided me his UK address and then forwarded the brochure to me.
Thanx and when you ever visit Germany:  |

Are you serious!? That's crazy. Is it really that hard to tick an extra box in eBay and write "Germany" on the package? I'm assuming that the brochure in question isn't even a particularly large item right? |

Normal A4 format, I guess he was disappointed he only got �0,99 for it and used the excuse that he didn't ship overseas and needed an UK address. I asked him a few times what the shipping costs to Germany were, then he wanted to abort the transaction.

Hi everyone
I'm looking at a Gallotone "The Wonder" for the moment, but the seller can only ship in the UK. Anybody willing to act as my "sponsor"?
Thanks,
 Joske Turbo
PS: Please don't hesitate because the item ends in 1 hour and 15minutes |

| I'll easily ship something on from the UK. I can accept paypal to pay for the shipping. Easiest, and quickest way to get hold of me is probably to PM me. |
