And "anybody" definitely does NOT know about customs. As I've already said, I've been left holding my hat too many times for me to dick around with it anymore. People in Europe who've never had dealings buying goods overseas before are generally oblivious, and that lack of knowledge is the problem
+1 to you, sir . I guess as is the case with all things, it only takes a couple of idiots to ruin the experience for everyone

For me, if I spot something on eBay US that will only be shipped within the continental states or to Canada, and I want it, I'll shoot the guy an e-mail asking if he'd consider sending it overseas. Granted, I've not bought a guitar from eBay US, but the sellers have always agreed to it as long as I pay the shipping, which is an absolute given. So Emperoff, just ask next time!
