I tried to buy some IV-16 in a foreign country, far over the channel.
here is the message I just received from ebay:
Hello Benoit,
The purchase you recently made under the International Delivery Service
with xxxxxxxx could not be completed.
The object in question has been restricted. This may be due to import or
delivery restrictions, or International Delivery Service eligibility
requirements. The item will not be sent to you, nor will it be returned
to the seller.
I have heard of this happening before with CRTs sold on e-bay But of
course their is NO way to get a detailed answer from E-bay.
Ebay uses a couple of international shipping services, it used to be
Pitney Bowes, although some items I recently got from the States spent a
week traveling around Chigago before being remails by an outfit called
Ascntia which is apperntly part of SWISS post!
the shipping center receives the goods and shipps them in Bulk to the
destination country where they are cleared in Bulk and then delivered by
one of many Local courier companies. You might see if you can still
see the detailed tracking information to see where the shipment got
derailed, - ikly at the shipping cneter in the UK in this case.
I wonder if the parts were marked "Russia" and so were considered
subject to boycot?
I wonder if the seller got stiffed for the price of the goods and the
shipping to the reship center?
