I've been pretty lucky so far sending stuff to Amigans as well.
I've sent a boxed Action Reply 3 to someone here. Ok so thats not that expensive and the recipricant is well well known but the Chromakey, which was also in MINT, Boxed condition WAS expensive and went successfully to an "Unknown" (to me) in Australia.
I just recently (last week) had the ONLY local Amigan I know pop round my house and buy my Siamese cd & cable.
I guess I just been lucky.
btw. If that Aussie I sent that Chromakey to is reading this. I hope your Uni is getting good service from it !!
