He probably thinks worldwide means anywhere in the States - it's a common american misconception

It's like their World Series, some are in a world of their own.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Do you not have any relations/freinds out there? bid, get them posted to them and then arrange 'worldwide' delivery.

If it looks like a price too good to be true, it probably is. I've had a few of those (not throttle bodies!), but thankfully was refunded.

I queried sending worldwide -
answer is
"Dear macbeast, 210 to UK"
Whatever that means

I bought mine from the US site a few years ago. Think they were about $100 including shipping to the UK...

I just bought an alloy engine mount from Germany.
Guys just sent me an invoice... €29 for the part, but €49 for delivery!
I just checked the weight / size against the Deutsche Post website, and see that they charge €14!
I've asked him to look into it

I had a diff sent from Germany and I'm sure the postage was only about £35 (but deffo no more than £45).
Slightly heavier than some bike bits1
