Hi folks. I just saw an auction of an item which I've been looking after since 2005 (yes, that's true). But, of course, it is US-only. I tried to contact the seller asking whether he's willing to sell to Europe, and I'm waiting for his answer, but just in case he doesn't want to, I am asking for help. Is there anybody willing to assist me? Better if he's good at sniping, since I'm ready to place a large amount and wouldn't want someone raising the bid 5-6 times in the last minute just trying to beat me.

Thank you in advance. I will post if the seller agrees to sell outside US.[/i]

It is something that I really like on Acaeum forums, the kind help offers that members immediatly make any times we have a problem :)
(I am not sure my sentence is grammatically correct, but I think you have understand)

I never had any problem to find US or UK "proxy" for my transactions too.

Thanks to all of you!  :)

Yes, I have asked for Proxy help twice recently.
Both times the transaction went smooth as silk for all concerned.

So as not to clutter the board with a separate, related thread.. Can anyone point me to where on eBay you can selectively allow international bidders to bid on your auctions? I don't want to open the floodgates, just allow specific individuals who ask to bid. TIA

it's called "Buyer Requirements Exemption List" and you can find it here:

The link may need to be changed to USA perhaps, but this is how someone from Italy helped me allow them to bid on some of my items recently.

Ok, doesn't matter anymore, the seller agreed on opening the auctions to non-US customers. I really appreciate the assistance offered, though. Thanks everybody!
