International postage is outrageous and often makes a good deal a bad one after you add shipping. Unless it's impossible to find local, buy local.

“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
I found that out, yeah. UK shipping seems to be one of the culprits, amongst others.Originally Posted by Animeniax
I ended up ordering from a store based in the UK (instead of ebay.co.uk), and paid fairly heftily for the product, though the postage wasn't that unreasonable. Another store I found had the products for a good 30$ cheaper, but wanted to charge me 160$ postage instead.
But in the end, it still works out better for the seller to list international postage. Ebay will display the domestic price for local bidders, while changing the rate for international folks. This is particularly true since the product is hard to find, and buying used is significantly cheaper regardless.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
