[quote="Sumflow"][color=#151B54]The ad clearly says no international shipping, not available to Alaska/Hawaii. This is common on heavy stuff that cost more to ship than its worth. Sellers block buyers whose primary address is in a location they do not want to ship to. International buyers registered in their home country often use a US Primary forwarding address. If you had won they could have reported you as a buyer who bid on a listing without meeting the listing terms. The correct thing to do in a situation like this is to email the seller and explain how they can ship it to you at your expense, before the auction has ended. Restrictions allow sellers to sell there stuff at the highest price, with the least amount of hassel.[/color][/quote]
