Oh boy, I might need to bid on this one. Currently at $400usd and 19 hours to go.
I would have done... But the seller (and more and more do, unfortunately) uses this insane new ebay all-in-shipping-program feature, that doesn't accept bidders from any countries that don't provide full insurance on watches (though clearly stated otherwise). So most likely this watch will go to a US buyer.
Sorry to side step, but I haven't heard this restriction before. I know people hate GSP for the crazy customs values. etc. But does this mean that the GSP broker won't ship to a country who's final leg local carrier doesn't insure watches? That's crazy, considering most carriers won't insure watches. Even FedEx, etc.
Yes this new insane ebay GSP leads back to local auctions, at least for items offered in the category wristwatches.
If the seller uses the GSP, it's impossible to bid due to these shipping restrictions, unless you live in the right part of the world. Most sellers and even ebay service employees don't know this and it's impossible to find the reason in the description of the auction or the regular terms.
Sounds like I need to start making friends for relay work.
