[QUOTE="subzero, post: 469628, member: 9185"] I was about to mention the global shipping program ( or global shitting program ) and then seen it was already mentioned above. But yes that ebay program is pure shite, iv'e won things on ebay.com before and then the seller starts flapping about and moaning telling me "no international shipping", then i'm like yeah but you've got the item set to int. post with the global shipping program and even after telling them that they're still confused because they don't have a clue they've signed up for it or even know what it is. After some convincing to them not to cancel the sale they eventually decide to ship it for me but don't have a clue how to get it through the postal system properly for that program, so I have to explain to them how it works. And the shipping prices are always damn high and with the mandatory VAT cost on top, which is ridiculous when buying a cheap item because most the time they get through with no VAT request at all. So I always try and go for a seller who isn't with the GS program and the shipping charge is sooo much cheaper. As for charity shops... booo!!, old brown clothes, scruffy boring books, crap DVD's and CD's, beat up board games and jigsaw puzzles probably containing all but 1 piece, and an extremely bored looking middle aged woman sitting behind the counter staring at you waiting for a sale, for you to just walk back out 30 seconds later. That's all iv'e ever got from them. :lol: [/QUOTE]
