I don't think its the cost issue as much as people don't want to deal with customs forms etc.

Really?  The customs form is nothing but the shipping name/address, return name/address, a short description of the contents, and your signature.  It takes a minute tops and can even be filled in online.

Didn't Santa fly around the whole world?
I don't mind sending internationally, we are an international forum, right?

Exactly. I don't understand why people always have such an issue with this either.

I have no problems with international shipping... hell, the cost of MSR's pre-order includes shipping to anywhere in the world.

I used to bring my International shipments to the Post Office and they don't do delivery confirmation (such a tragedy) when you do 1st Class...I use online shipping now which includes free delivery confirmation and has easy to fill out customs forms.

I'm pretty sure I indicated that in my initial PM: that I had no problem with shipping to moon men/women.

as should everyone else in their PM's to Necro to make it clear whether you can or cannot.

The hardest part of this is going to be compiling a list of games, one of which I'd hope to receive, and then not buy any of them in the interim!

When we say the value of our wishlist items should be $20-30, doesn't that mean some of them will end up costing the buyer the higher, bloated Ebay price?

Nor do I. I just got confused by the wording. I didn't want to get called out for possibly spending more than the 20-30 dollar limit, or causing someone else to have to spend more than they originally budgeted. Sometimes that sort of thing is frowned upon.
