Am I right in thinking that this is one of those boxes attached to the soda machine to take the extra penny.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws....TQ:US:1

I've asked the seller if they'd ship to the UK and got back the usual  "No" in capital letters.

Dave,
If you want it, let me know I'll ship. That would go in the global box $28.00.

Thanks Creighton

I wouldn't out of principle. I can understand big items. But little items like that. I've posted home from the US and to the US there ain't much more involved. You know you've done it loads of times. I just don't understand people closing a whole market down. Do they think there is less chance of getting scammed within the US than outside. If they do then they are completely wrong.

At that scams conference I went to there was some terrible tales. The Canadian Lottery one is still big. They also told us about the Nigerian Cosmonault who has been orbiting space for the last fifteen years and because Nigeria can't afford to bring him down the family need money to do it privately. If you provide a few 1000 US dollars in return he will split 15 yrs worth of wages running into 100's of 1000's with you.

People are doing it. They are sending money to get the poor man down from space. ':p'

Hey Dave,
Think most are just too lazy to fill out the forms and make the trip to the post office.

I sold a Penny Box a little while back to a guy in Canada for a little over $300. It was in nice shape, complete with rejector, electro-magnets and wiring and I had two newly made keys for it. I bought it off eBay about a year before I sold it for $45 total. It had been mislabeled as a Lance piece because it was included in a box of Lance parts a guy got and he had no idea what it was.

Dave,

Like Creighton said, if you ever see anything over here you want, you can also have it shipped to me in Maryland.  I will be more than happy to send it to you.  I pass by the post office twice a day.

Thanks Chaps

May need to take one of you up on that soon. A Dispenser stand I have my eye on will only be shipped US. Unlike
the penny box I would really like this item.

I agree with Creighton, they're probably just lazy. Some people refuse to even ship to Canada.

Out of interest, if I was to buy a machine from the states and meet the seller at the border (Niagara), would I have to pay customs fees ?
