Default Buying a 'new' Receiver in the USofA and Shipping it to Europe as "Used"

Speaking of Universal Radio...

Anyone knows why they dont deliver to the EU anymore? Saw a receiver I
liked after following their site for a few months, emailed them, them
decided to give 'm a call anyway and they told me they dont sell
overseas anymore and promised they would explain over email.

The email I got, but no explanation however. Kinda sucks, prices are
much cheaper over in the USA, even after adding import tax...

Anyone knows of a good alternative to Universal Radio?

JeroenK - Buying a 'new' Receiver in the USofA
and Shipping it to Europe as "Used" :

* Have someone buy the Radio for you in the USofA.

* Un-Box-It and remove all the Tags and Wrapping.

* Test-It for and 24 Hours {Listen and Play with the Radio}

* Remove the Manual and 'other' Accessories from the Box and
ship them to you separately as "Used" Radio {Electronics} Parts.

* Send the Receipt, Registation and Warranty Card by separate
Letter.

* Wait-a-Week then put the Radio with just the Power Cord
back in the Box with the original packing; and Ship the Radio
to you by itself as a "Used" Radio {Electronic Equipment for
Amateur Radio Use} .

NOW - You have your Radio -but- Most likely you will not
have a Warranty that is 'valid' in Europe.
