content: The auction for 2 is over, but he said he has a bunch in the listing here so maybe there are more to be had. Wrong side of the pond for me, as usual

content: My understanding is he has quite a few more. It is worth noting that he is testing them and, I believe, discarding any with poor "filaments".Every other Friday Fleabay here gives 80% off the sellingtributecosts, provided you list items within 3 days. He would be silly not to wait for the next one of those to materialise.

content: Quote from: Old Printer on July 06, 2023, 05:25:56 pmPM me; I have no intention of jumping through ebay international hoops, but am quite happy to sell to EEVBlog members wherever they are.Quote from: tggzzz on July 06, 2023, 05:45:24 pmJust so, thanks tggzzz. Perhaps I should have been more specific than just saying "I have a bunch" and the ebay listing is for "pics and description".Just to be 100% clear, I have a considerable number of these, and yes, I am testing them and setting aside the ones that have even the smallest degree of cathode poisoning for attempted reconditioning and personal projects, so all the ones I sell here, on ebay, or anywhere else, will betested as working perfectly. I will sell them here at slightly less than the ebay opening bid price, but only tomembers in good standing, andnot in bulk to a trader.

content: Quote from: AVGresponding on July 07, 2023, 05:30:53 amI haven't had any problems (yet!) with fleabay's GSP. The whole point of that is that fleabay takes care of the unpleasantness, and I'm happy for purchasers to pay more for that.Not sure about their eIS, though. Seems like it might introduce too many uncertaintiesfor the purchaser, e.g. whether they have to pay tax on delivery.

content: Quote from: tggzzz on July 07, 2023, 08:53:13 amFor a buyer, GSP is awful. No useful tracking (changes multiple times, tracking # of last mile carrier never published). Unknown shipping times - varies a lot. Double VAT payments. Sigh.GSP is a big red flag to me.

content: Quote from: eplpwr on July 07, 2023, 07:19:30 pmI think eIS will be worse. As I understand/misunderstand it, the displayed price sometimes will and sometimes won't include import duties and/or VAT. It if doesn't then you willeventuallydiscover the extra taxes you oweplusa big shippers admin fee.I've been hit with those when buying outside fleabay, and it is an unpleasant late surprise. I haven't had them with fleabay purchases.

content: Quote from: eplpwr on July 07, 2023, 07:19:30 pmI'm slightly surprised by that. Here's a trace of an item I recently sold through GSP. I copied the fleabay tracking number to 17track.net to see if there was any different information; there wasn't.I should note the large gap between "customs cleared" in the UK and "in transit with destination carrier". I did not see, nor expect to see, any notifications between "cleared" and "delivered". That doesn't conflict with your statements.

content: Quote from: AVGresponding on September 07, 2023, 08:30:01 amI sold something recently for £22+5, and received £26.01, or £49 and recieved £47.45. I regard those as reasonable.It does require you to list over a weekend after accepting an "80% off" type offer, and to end an unsold listing before 28 days have elapsed. The offers appear in my ebay messages (only) on one Friday every fortnight.

content: Quote from: tggzzz on September 07, 2023, 09:03:31 amYeah, it's fine when there're offers, but I got screwed last time (partly admittedly because I missed reading the multibuy exception, but also they applied only one postage charge to an order of three items), and the fact they hide "duplicate" listings, until the "original" item has a bid.I'll use ebay to sell some of my bigger, single items, because I'll get a better price there than here, but for these, ebay is frankly crap.
