I'm not saying that every single seller did mean 
to put that when it's there. I said it's wrong to 
assume they don't mean it. . . If you **ASK** in 
advance and the seller says "sure, no problem" 
then that's a different story. But if you just 
assume they don't mean it, and bid without asking 
in advance -- I'm sorry, but I'll always think 
doing that is wrong.

*After* you've won an item is NOT the time to be 
saying: "Oh by the way, you can either ship 
internationally -- or go through the hassle of 
relisting your item and sucking up the final 
value fees and risking bad feedback from me."

Obviously, the second half of that is unspoken, 
but is always implied when an international 
bidder wins a *non*-international auction.
