Ian, I have bought a couple of things on e-bay. The two reasons I stopped looking recently are: 1. Most people list as "will sell to USA only" 2. When you do find someone who sells international, then you find out they only use an expensive postal company. So although there were lots of cheap items I would like, US$40 postage for 1 turnout that cost $10 item was not worth it. Before you bid you need to contact the seller and find out who they will post with and weight of the item. You can then get on the internet and find the freight rates of that company. Surface mail on US postal service takes about 6 weeks and is cost effective. Anything else is prohibitive unless you have a really expensive item. In the end it is such a hassle to go through all this for something you don't even know if you will win. I just gave up. The much better solution for us living Down Under is find yourself someone in the USA you can use as a forwarding address. Get the seller to post to them. Then get your contact to post it to you using the US postal service. Glen.
