Someone able and willing to help me with an Ebay purchase from a seller that won't ship out of the US ?(bid is less than 300 dollars)
Martin
Ooh, that' s pricked my ears up a bit Martin - what is it?
My mother in law lives in New Jersey and I could ask her to send it on to you if you win. She has done this lots for us before. Just means double shipping cost.
Dave.
If you dont find a solution with a local US member, just tell me and I find a way.
Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.
I use re-shippers:

I have used both on many occasion and all's been fine.

I've e-mailed you back but will still post here.
My access to that item is blocked by eBay (I must be some International Pirate or something!). I can find the same thing (for $459) from another seller in the US via the UK eBay site but not via the German eBay site. I don't know why eBay blocks certain items like this from users? I have the same problem when members post links on Beoworld to eBay auctions and I can't open those either!
Sorry I couldn't help in this instance. Hopefully Soren will have more luck.
I just bid for Martin, no problems. I dont understand why Dave cant bid on it, Dave do you have a confirmed US delivery address registered with Ebay ??

Hi Soren,
I have a confirmed Paypal address in France where I live so not having a US address is irrelevant. I've bid on and bought tons of stuff from the US and Canada with no problems, including recently. It doesn't happen all of the time, just with some items. Occasionally US sellers block French buyers deliberately due to a political row in the past (DSK and others).
As I said, I could see and bid on the same item from another US seller but not the link Martin had.
Got it, now I have to find out how to get it to DK. Wonder what Martin is going to do with this thingy, make CDs for all of us for Xmas
Thanks Søren and all others who volunteered to help.Don't hesitate to let me know if I can do anything from here in return.

Glad Soren could win it for you Martin. I'm willing to try another one again for you if you need a volunteer - assuming I can bid on it! Same applies for anything here in France.
Ask them to use the Global Shipping Program, they then ship to a place in the USA and the GSP does the rest. Everyone in the usa can use GSP so worth a try
Martin has his Kodak CD copier, Bought by me from Mexico, shipped from Virginia Beach to McAllen TX to Copenhagen DK. Only possible with a forum like this.
Good news, your right, this is a great forum

wow now that is neat (both the gesture and the Kodak tech).... another reason why felt it was a "no-brainer" to renew my subscription to Beoworld
