[Elecraft] Private Sales of used Elecraft Rigs

[Johnny Siu]

Hello Ray,
 
I have the impression that quite a number of the US sellers are worried about shipping overseas (I don't know why).
 
In the past, when I bought from private individuals in US, I had to even give them weblink to USPS about using which way of shipping e.g. International Priority standard rate box etc.  Or, I simply ask them to use my Fedex account so that they have no involvement in paying any shipping costs.
 
In some cases, since the sellers were so worried that I simply asked them to ship to my friends in US. And then I asked my friend to re-ship the gears to me.
 
Nowadays, logistics among countries are just so common.  As long as the parcels are well packed and properly tracked, I don't see any problems.
 
Similar to you, I am not complaining about anyone here but just curious.
 
 
TNX & 73,

主題︰ [Elecraft] Private Sales of used Elecraft Rigs

I am intrigued, I've noticed that when various Elecraft rigs are offered for
private sale on this forum they invariably say " Continental USA" only.

Why...?

We Europeans also have PayPal, Visa, Bank Transfers  etc etc so what's the
problem please?



I just bought a kit & accessories direct from Elecraft 2 weeks ago, it was
delivered within 7 days and they didn't have a problem with selling to
Europe.



Just interested .
