:D A very good place to start is EBAY BUT GERMAN EBAY. THE people there are more generous and a lot of old stuff is there. actually, any foreign Ebay will do. just go to the bottom and take your pick. They have stuff like CPS 4200, 2000,2500, and older ones like that.

While ebay.de has some good stuff for bidding, 90% of german sellers won't ship outside of DEUTSCHLAND. (I have to restrain myself to not do a joke about germany's historical Xenophobic history influencing their ebay polecies.)

Anyways, even for the ones who ship worldwide, shipping will be 3 times more than the soaker itself. Its the problem with overseas shipping.

eBay.de is occasionally useful, but as A2 pointed out, payment can be very awkward, since it is quite rare to find a seller that will accept PayPal. Bank-to-bank transfers are expensive. And, of course, on top of that all, you're hit by high shipping fees. So all-in-all, it can be best to stick to your own country's eBay.

Same here. Some sellers don't even reply and again have dodgy payment methods which are expensive like a Bank Transfer. I only pay with Paypal now as its dead easy.

Good Job ANNHILATOR 2! :)

:unsure: Um...All that may be true, but there are still some pretty rare soakers out there, you could try another country. Perhaps one closer to the US(or Uk, or Australia, or wherever you are). :mellow: I'll be looking for some better sites soon.
