Sorry, but just because things went RIGHT with your transaction, does not mean it goes like that on shipments to other countries outside the USA all the time! And it only takes ONE TIME for a high dollar unit to go damaged or missing.
There IS A REASON a lot of sellers do not ship outside the USA.
Yes, it is a bumnmer if you live outside the USA, but you also have to consider the sellers view too. A lot of sellers are concerned not only with damage to the unit which could very well happen shipping overseas, but they are also concerned with a "little thing" called customs.
Which CAN delay a shipment.... or even deny a shipment.... or confiscate equipment if they have a mind to do so and there is very little either a seller or buyer can do about it! That is just a fact!
And we will not even discuss the nightmare it can be trying to recoup losses in the USA if it is a shippers fault overseas!
So while I understand your views you need to also understand there are VALID reasons WHY a person does not want to ship outside the US. I never have and never will. Why take a chance having my merchandise damaged or confiscated by customs when I can sell it in my own country? It simply is not a bet I am willing to gamble on.
For cheaper items sure, but NOT expensive items!
Right now, I have ordered a DVD game from India on ebay....a MONTH later, it has still not gotten to the USA. When I emailed the seller about it, he had to go to the local post office, which informed him that for some reason it was SENT BACK to the India and they had to send it back out...a MONTH LATER!
And you think I am going to go through that nightmare scenario with an axe fx? You have to be out of your mind! Like I said a small item is one thing, a high dollar item is another.
Thanks, but I HAVE MY REASONS for selling only in the USA!
I'm just saying that damage on unit, or loss can happen equaly in the local or international shipping. As far as customs...Never heard they confiscated item if it's not some illegal content, or something...No reason for doing that, if I'm missing something, sorry. And custom fees are, of course, buyer responsability. I paid custom fees for my Ultra, of course...And judging by your post, you sounded very offended, no reason for that also I didn't said ''people who doesn't want to ship outside of states are BAD''....Just a fact that s*** can happen everywhere, not only on international shipping.
