>>I guess he was not interested enough  to sell to someone in France, selling 
the Sikhote
Alins off list + on  ebay at the same time... and waiting 5 min before they 
ended on ebay  to
answer how much it will cost for shipping to France.<<

He  didn't sell them to me off list and ebay at the same time. Actually he 
had no  idea it was me that was bidding on ebay until it was over. It was later 
in the  month that he put the other SA's for sale off list. The photos weren't 
all that  great, but at the time I relied on his stuff of usually being very 
good quality  for my price range. That was one of my best judgement calls to 
date. So you made  your ebay bid without knowing what the shipment would be? 
Personally I wouldn't  have made a bid without knowing the shipping costs. Some 
are outrageous and some  very reasonable. 

>>Enjoy your buys from Chicago Steve, but I don't  regret his blunt emails to 
and off list :)<<

Well...sorry to  hear that you had a sour experience for whatever the cause. 
But I do plan on  enjoying my acquisitions however it was done.
