LOC: FC2C-0514 PL20140530 You really like the thing, but not so much the price... I find cool stuff, do some research and list it for what I think it's worth. Sounds pretty simple but sometimes not. So if this is something you really like but its a bit more than you had hoped to pay, then be sure to watch this because I can't send it to the bank, and if it ends without a buyer chances are real good I will drop the price and re-list it until it does sell! Two things for sure - it will get sold sooner rather than later, and that's better for both of us. International Buyers We will ship to most, but not all locations around the world. We use Priority Mail, and it will include full insurance and delivery confirmation. Unfortunately I can not ship using first class international mail because there is no insurance available, and ebay rules require insurance.
