Lend me your bargepole - I wouldn't touch this deal with my own! This 
doesn't stack up. You are only going to need one piece of don't-know-how, 
and you would be completely stumped, I reckon. Of course, this item has 
appeared on eBay before (was it with the same seller?), and it didn't sell 
then. Why?  Good luck to anyone buying it and shipping it half way around 
the world, only to find that DHL (stands for Dropped, High-kicked and 
Launched) or your international carrier of choice haven't just delivered 
you a pile of broken silica tubes.
