You're not stupid, Peter. It's just something that could only come up in hindsight, after you've already been screwed. But for items that I happen to sell that have potential "international interest," (which is rare), I still won't sell or ship to countries with a bad rap. I'll check out that "Boomerang" book. The Greece thing is wild, but what happened to Iceland is spectacularly unbelievable. -d.

Really fascinating read.

If you're still using eBay, why don't you guys just ban buyers from Greece? I know it's draconian, but things are unsettled over there, e.g., like dealing a buyer registered in Nigeria. All eBay members are identified by the country from which they registered - and all sellers now have the ability to create a "default-country-by-country-exclusions list" on their selling templates. I'm not going to risk selling to countries with unreliable economies or postal systems. The only loophole question I'd have is: Is it possible for a bad eBay member to get a new ID - but register from a country that differs from what eBay requires to join? -d.
