Has any fellow forum members shipped to Indonesia before? I just sold a game to the guy in the country that is worth 500 dollars...and he has gone ghost on me...

I checked the game's status and it is in his local post office waiting for him yo pick it up. It was in there for more than a week now.

I contacted him but to no avail.

He paid with paypal....so I am afraid whether he is in some sort of scam...or maybe something has happend to him like a heart attack.

Help!

You know that you can simply check on the Buyer requirements under site preference and block buyers from undesirable countries that you don't want to ship to, right? You'd think a Muslim country would be high on that block list.

Problem with being in the US is that, according to the NSA, shipping to a Muslim country could constitute as "aiding terrorism".

For example, the CPU in a used PS2 could be repurposed for use with a guided missile.
