I should learn to be more helpful!
Haha. What goes around comes around.
I have been on various online forums for at least ten years, and i was always quick to help people out. Whether it was helping out just with information, or helping people get items from the UK they couldn't get where they were, all the help adds up. Sometimes i have needed help, and it's great in a situation like that to be able to drop someone a line and they can help you out.
In a situation like this one, i don't like calling on the same person too often, but i always pay more than the straight amount required if they have to forward something on to me.
I never be able to purchase anything from Sideshow. The freight rate they charge is just... absurd. And also, they declare the full value, which means more money for import taxes and stuff... So I´ll have to accept that I´ll always will depend on evilbay...
But I did some good dealings in the market area here.
Did it count?
It will indeed. Online friendships are just as real as face to face ones.
I'd recommend asking someone you are friends with on here if they could take delivery and forward it to you.
That's what i do.
