Never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever let ebay handle anything you can
handle yourself!
They will always make a disaster of it!

I can't help but share this experience with the Global Shipping Program. I
bought a beautiful Brimar CRT and it was duly shipped to the GSP centre, after

Dear XXXXX (the seller)
My name is Nick. Thank you for contacting eBay???s Global Shipping Programme
department. I understand you require more information for item #272653050020.
Your sale of item #272653050020 through the Global Shipping Programme couldn't
be delivered because the shipment contained items that were found to be
restricted from transport.
If an item arrives to our shipping hub and the item is restricted from international
carriage, our hub will not proceed with the shipment and will safely dispose of the
item. This is process is subject to dangerous goods only. In this instance the item
contains amp tube(s) possibly manufactured pre-70s. In that era most lamps & tubes
had mercury reflectors. In the absence of clear data ruling out the risk, your item has
been rated UN3506, Mercury contained in manufactured article. Class 8, Corrosive &
Toxic. Restricted to all countries on our system
By choosing to ship your item with the Global Shipping Programme, you agree to
certain terms and conditions of the programme, one of which is that when an
oversized item is received at the shipping hub, it is liquidated and the buyer
is refunded by eBay. No money will be or has been taken from your account.
I am sorry we have not been able to forward your item. We thank you for all of
your eBay business and hope that this information has been helpful.Kind Regards,
