Many of the sellers on the UK sites for old hand tools (which I collect)
quote US shipping and US prices. I don't believe it to be any more risky
than when I ship stuff from the states (i'm in the UK). Just do all your
normal checks, seller rating etc. I can't see any reason not to purchase
worldwide, although I think you'll notice bulky objects get expensive to
have shipped. This applies equally to old radios as it does to tools/

Remember old tools work everywhere, English electronics (for example) use
240V AC, so if you are buying radios you need to work out how to power them.

Just a few thoughts.

Recently went to the home page of EBay and noticed other countries
listed. Went to English site, German, and Spanish. My question is:
Has anyone visited these sites from U.S. computer and bought
something? I was thinking I could get a cool vintage radio that I
might not be able to find over here in the States. I know some US
EBay sellers ship international so I figure it might go the other way.
Could someone that might have done this please help me get started if
it's possible? Is it more "chancy"? Thx
