Would anyone be able to pick this up for me and send it onto me...the seller is giving me some nonsense that he cannot send Cd's to England or Germany because of our import laws and the position of the Uk and German labels taking action against him importing CD's into their territory. Seems like the most unlikely load of rubbish i ever heard but he swears blind its true, I have challenged him three times now informing him any such action would be illegal and anti competitive and a flagrant breach of the Uk's position as a country with a free market and one based around a democracy. Still he says he will not sell to me because he does not want to upset the Uk labels further....I'm stunned, but would like the item in the jewel case with the white spine (thanks Dave )

I will of course send the money before you order and cover your onward shipping charges to me

I can do it.
Let me know the shipping method and I can grab it.

I've bought form this seller several times without any problem. Once I received a wrong cd and he refunded my money withput asking me to ship back the cd...

Strange words...

I also can help you if you need me.

Hi Massimo, I would like it in the jewel case but wouldnt need insurance.....if you just let me know what it will be to send it to the Uk from you, I'll paypal the money to you....

We might as well work that other thing out at the same time (Save you)

thanks for doing this, your a star....

really I dont understand this seller at all. I even offered to write a legal letter to the Uk label if there really was one giving him trouble and putting them right on their position but I havent heard back

I really dont doubt that at all Vic, hes been very fast in replying to me, just very very reluctant to sell to the Uk. I told him I have CD's imported from all over the world yet hes not slightly interested. Baffling to be honest

Im more than happy to help in cases like this.

It's a good thing if we can help each other to get some records/cds with shipping restrictions.

I remember I had an opportunity of catching a couple of tickets for the Astoria show (London, 2006?)... and Ticketmaster only shipped to UK/Ireland...

That was sad!...

I am buying quite often from this seller, never had problems with him.
He ships to Denmark without any problems...
Goodluck!

Heres the problem the guy has had with the UK and Germany....
