I really don't get why people wouldn't want to ship outside their own country. If the buyer pays for the postage, then what is the problem?

I would have liked that PIV as well, and indeed that is a bargain!

I can understand the buyer not wanting to ship. I sold a SX-64 about two months ago and the buyer only wanted to pay for ground shipping with no tracking availible. Now eight weeks later he says he has not received item. I told him to wait another couple weeks, or I guess I will have to refund him or have my 100% feedback marked. The point is I can not verify if he received it or not. From now on I will only ship by registered mail, if they do not want to pay the extreme fees, they can't have the item.  :rtfm:


Well, that was actually what I meant. If I wanted that PIV so badly, even when the shipper refused to send it outside of Germany, I would have tried to convince him that I was willing to pay for full registered shipping, no matter the costs.

Plus, shipping from Germany to any other EU country really isn't THAT expensive that someone would want to have it shipped in the least expensive way. Heck, if I pay 200 Euro for a PIV, then I want to be sure that it arrives in a good order. I don't mind about that few Euros more then....
