Well have to brag (I guess).

Got sick of the house work (LOL) and went into the room in the shed.

Finished getting all 27 trucks going (with trailers), and then got 37 G-Plus chassis's working (Handy having parts).

Looked at the 24 Mag chassis's sitting on the shelf and thought (Rugby time), So came inside.

Rant over

Well guys I have just finished trolling through US Ebay as I do most nights,looking for making additions to my collection,what I think I have noticed is that more and more sellers are not willing to send overseas,do any of you guys see this trend or is it just unfortunate that the car/cars I am wishing to bid on has a seller that wishes to sell within the US,I have contacted the unwilling seller and sometimes they are willing to send as a ONE OFF,what do you guys think?

Yeah, alot won't, But in saying that, some are so silly with shipping costs. When I ask, I also say that if it's not ok to ship to NZ would you post to a friend in the USA (thats Dan for me), Also to make the postage question a slightly easier, I put a "LOL the small island below Australia" Breaks the ice a bit.

dont start me off about postal costs from some the those thieving sellers,I contacted a seller, $US42.50 for one fucking car,"told him I wasnt expecting him to deliver it in person",his reply to that statement would make a whore blush,so I didnt attempt to win that auction,I will wait for another of the same car to come up on ebay again
