So i kindly messaged the dude and said i want these but i would like them posted to the US is this ok can you help etc etc.
I've had that too. There is an eBay function to set conditions for the bidders, but it ignores the shipping addresses. Sellers that only want to ship to the US get to block users with US and non-US addresses. Even when the US address is the primary address. Pure nonsense. I've talked to eBay's support a long time ago and they promised to make a bug report. Yeah sure.

Magnus #12
Solar #9
Megaton #2 (finally!)
Quadrant #7 x 2 (a tough to find Hsu 80's book)
Omega Men #10 (yeah, yeah, I know.)
Solution #0 (how did this come out again?)
X-O Manowar #15 pink (yeah, yeah)
Hard Corps #5 Comic Defense (sigh)
Star Trek Next Generation #1 (mini) x 2
Bone #38 Miller cover
Prophet #4 Platt cover (I will ALWAYS pick up this book for $1 or less.)
Prophet #1 (Splatt) Holochrome x 2 (this is actually a hard book to find)
Wildcats #0 Ashcan (1 of 5000)
Avengylene ashcan (which I didn't have. There were about 200 copies of REGULAR Avengylene, so I looked for the "1 in 100" holochrome cover, but came up none. Darn it.)
Defiant Genesis signed by Shooter
Suicide Squad #66 (actually a sought after last issue)
Youngblood #0 Gold x 3 (yeah, I dunno what I was thinking either.)
Gen 13 #3 mini newsstand (they had 5, but they were all crunchy)
Extreme Studios 93 Tour Gold edition (another tough, but "who the hell cares?" book)
Starslayer #2 x 6 (I can hardly resist Near Minty fresh copies of the first appearance of the Rocketeer, even though the character is gone into the ether with Dave Stevens. :( The place had like 20 copies of it; I picked out the best 6.)

All for $1 each.

Not bad. :)
