Hi . can anyone help me with this.
Got this bidder going ballistic and ramping up the price on this lot (which is well overpriced now) He has over 100 transactions but feedback of 0..:confused:
He's from italy ,which is not a problem, but I have seen some sellers say they won't ship to Italy for some reason.
I've sent him a message, If i get no response i'll remove the bids

:Figured out why he has a 0 feedback.. No recent activity.. (Last transaction in 2010)
I'll just wait and see..

Italian customs are evil and charge a lot of $ on even the smallest parcels.
Plus they tend to hold things up for ages.

To be honest, $300 for that lot isn't bad, not sure what the postage to italy woiuld make it, but I couldn't find a complete apeface or snapdragon at botcon in 2011 for less than $120 and many were approaching $150.

I wouldn't wory too much untill he tries to get you to use western union. :)

I hear dodgy stuff about the Italian Postal service hence why sellers wont send to Italy. One example I heard was a parcel, according to the tracking number, was delivered but the buyer said it had not arrived. Even some South American countries are bad for this, even their Customs are ripoff merchants.

And people complain about Auspost.
