ebay user cargo2fra, sounds dodgy or not
That Swan Guy:
It's only like the ebay system the US sellers use to sell to overseas.
They all get unpacked then re-packed and a note added saying they've checked it for legitamacy.

I just could have done without it really as it's getting bad enough with some UK buyers pissing around let alone foreign

Ironically this is a service that eBay offers now - Global Shipping Program (here in the US anyway). I ship the item to eBays forwarding center (in Kentucky) and they re-pack it and fire it off to wherever in the World the winning bid came from. They deal with the customs, intl' postage and all that nonsense.
I though it was all a bit dodgy at first as I was shipping stuff to winning bidders in the Far East through a place in Los Angeles but it all worked out though and feedback was left by someone....
Good job to run it by eBay first.

tbh it's because of the repack that i have the most concern with.
i pack it safely and pay for insurance to the middle man, he then packs it as light as poss to save money and it then gets damaged. the third party claim off him then he'll make out it was damaged inside once opened and claim off me.
i very much doubt the middle man will leave me feedback till the third party has ok's it. so it will leave the door open for them to get me, when i ain't done nothing wrong.

got a message from these today asking me to post the item
also to complete their forms on their website so it makes it easier for them to post it on.
well i sent the parcel tracked and insured which they have signed for 24 hours ago.
i told them if they bothered to look at my messages etc they would have seen i included the tracking number when i sent it
i ain't completing their forms for them as that's their job
