Well...im not sure if my stories fit into this category but anyway...here they go:

- Once i won an ebay auction. The seller only shipped to USA, so i have him sent the stuff to my father“s house (he lives in Florida). I have to wait more than 8 months to "collect the stuff". When i went to visit my father, i took all Amiga stuff he had received over those 8 months, and took them with me back home (Argentina)

- I won another ebay auction. The guy was from France, and (of course), only shipped to France. I have him sent the CD32 to my sister“s house in Paris. One year and a half later , i travelled to France because she was getting married. I then collected the CD32 and other Amiga stuff i had bought back to home. I can also mention another CD32 i won which belonged to some canadian guy who only sipped to (you guess it!) Canada. My uncle lives in Toronto, so when he went to France for the wedding, he took the CD32 with him, gave it to me, and i then brought it home with me (not to mention i spent almost 1 months travelling all across Europe with my bag full of Amiga stuff)

@ Cyberus: thank you very very much for your kind offer!
I will take it into serious consideration, since eBay UK is my primary source of Amiga related stuff

Yeah...its very cool to have relatives spreaded all around the world...but... i usually never have the $$$ to pay a visit!!
( i mean, i spend my hard earned money in Amiga stufff!!!!)
