Yeah German eBay is a great resource, but as you've indicated the shipping (and bank wire transfer charges for payment) are crazy.

That said, I have usually found great bargains, so when you add picking up something really rare to a low sale price it still evens out in your favor.

Did anyone check out the wheels on this DOKA? I want a pair!!!!
