This is an absolute joke!! I sell aircraft manuals on CD from Australia, and 95% of my buyers are from Europe or North America. Even if I offered the fastest shipping method (which would cost more than the value of the item sold) it can still take upwards of 2 or even 3 weeks for items to arrive!!
As always, the seller is being held at gunpoint by an organisation that cares about nobody's back pocket apart from their own!
