this particular seller that i have put a case with ebay has been getting positive feedback for other items that he/she recently acquired at the sdcc 2013 convention, hence i am very puzzled as to why I have not gotten any communication from the seller - I did read and re-read and re-read the description and there is international shipping provided..... i just want the seller to respond to me that is all... anyway it is in the hands of ebay now so fingers crossed, seller will respond as it is a ebay prompt and not a buyer's prompt....

decided to jump onto an alternative seller on ebay and yes did read and re-read the description and international shipping is provided - Global Shipping Program (some sort of 3rd party arrangement by ebay and courier)

So i am really puzzled as to why ebay sellers are not responsive on their communication at all....

fingers crossed
