Anyway, if you don't want to sell cheap, it's a good option. good points Chritiane have a look at one of my auctions as an example of how I describe an item and the extent I'll go to be as explicit as possible about what I'm selling and how I am prepared to trade: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1376040781&rd=1 I've been ripped off twice as a buyer and three times as a trusting seller (please, no one get any ideas!) but I do my best to be fair and understanding - one person who annoyed the heck out of me with delay tactics as to why he couldn't send the item I paid for eventually sent me TWO of the items by way of apology, another guy who took months to respond (literally) had been in a car accident and was laid up in hospital at the time.. language barriers can confuse transactions as well, but when I get payment in Australian dollars through a Mersyside bank account in the UK from someone in Japan I have to smile :-) Check the USPS site for countries that can cash US International money orders, they are a cheap and convenient way to make international transactions. Weird thing is that even though I can buy them here to send to sellers, they're not cashable in Oz.. karl
