Need an item forwarded to me from Europe

Post by REVENGE »

Hey guys, I need to buy a bike part that I've only found in a UK shop online, but they refuse to ship to the US. Would any of you be willing to receive the item for me in Europe, then send it to me in the US? I can compensate your shipping cost via PayPal. Let me know, thanks.

It's a cable holder unit found in some vintage Shimano STI shifters. I would just buy it from Petra Cycles, but they're out of stock, so I'm trying to order it from South Water Cycles. It costs about 8 quid to buy and ship to the UK, so I was hoping someone would receive it for me, then forward it via air mail.

Sorry, this one's getting out of fashion these days. Now it's Americans who are trying to pull the scam.

Catch me on mumble or PM me.

For the record: A member of this community once sent me a motherboard and cpu, out of the goodness of his heart. I have no problems whatsoever trying to sort this out for you, or doing similar things as this for the community in general.

Thanks pintle, I'll talk to you on Mumble when I get a chance.

FYI, they seem to ship to almost all of Europe and the Channel Islands as well, but when I contacted them about special shipping to the US, they said no.
