Hello Everyone

I'm looking for a serious person, who could ship an arcade PCB from USA to France.

I want to buy on ebay a Pole Position 2 pcb arcade.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270755599889

 It's a very hard to find pcb game, and i already bought for some weeks in france the original PP2 cabinet without the pcb.

The problem is that seller refuses to ship something outside the US.
The idea is that i will buy the item on ebay (hope i'll will), and put the adress of the person which is agrea to send it back to me. Then i pay this person for the shipping feas and a little more the the distubing of going the us postal, (with paypal or something else, but i think paypal is convienient).

And finally i'll hope to recieve something 

If someone is ok, he can contact me with this forum.

I know it's my fisrt message on this Dwarf Fortress forum, but i'm playing for a while to DF. (i'm using the canardpc french topic of dwarf fortess usually, and i started DF before there where hospitals and other news stuffs)

Thanks and hope someone will answer.

What kind of superbot is this?

What kind of superbot is this?

I think its more of a super retro collectotron than a superbot.

:-(

I'm not a superbot!!!!!
But ok i'll leave this topic. I'm sorry for that it's stupid,i'll wait for a hypotetic new item.

Well, usually if a 1-post topic starter appears, its almost always a spambot.

Thanks for your answer.
Yes i know, that's why i've tried to explain my problem the best as i can.

Anyway, now i have an account, i'll try to particpate to this forum, and maybe ask something in the Future of the fortress topic, which is to my opinion the more interessing one.

The only spambot here is me.

It does seem a little weird you'd ask here though.  Wouldn't it make more sense to ask someone you at least vaguely know?

Definitely would be best to get in with someone you've got actual face-to-face history with. Looking in to it, at least via UPS, the international shipping would cost more than (or right around th'same amount of) th'actual item + stateside shipping. If I'm running the numbers right, th'whole process would cost around $100 even, maybe a bit less, USD, which is pretty impressive. Looking at roughly tripling the cost of th'actual (current) bid.

I'm guessing contact has been attempted with th'seller itself? If you could go through them, it'd be a lot easier. Auction page definitely says US only, but it wouldn't hurt to try to negotiate.

Anyway, interesting situation. I'd help if I were in a situation where I could, yeah, but I'm not at th'mo, unfortunately. I'm somewhat familiar (in a very loose sense) with th'difficulty getting things across oceans, so I wish th'OP the best of luck.

I still say he's a superbot

[ChairmanPoo]

I don't think he's a bot. I think he's an exiled Nigerian prince, who will share his fortune with you if you help him in his scheme.

this is how skynet begins

You know how nerdy the forum is when someone wants a powerboard or whatever from Pole Position Tw

I think his sentence structure isn't weird because he's a bot, mais parce-que il est francais.
