its the usual U.S. Scam, cheapen the item, but up the postage to compensate. Look at some of the compact flash cards... dirt cheap, but some are wanting $25 for postage, for something which they could send via air mail for 2$

I've bought loads of stuff off the US ebay (no scooby parts) but loads of snowboard stuff. You can get some real bargins but what you NEED to do is email the seller ask them if A) If they are willing to ship internationally & B) (if they are willing to ship internationally) when you ship internationally the seller has to advise the postal company how much the goods are worth so ask them to put down that the value of the goods as being under $36 or HER MAJESTY's CUSTOMS will rape you on import and VAT tax when they arrive in the UK (I learn't this the hard way and got rolled on a coat I bough) but since finding out the little loop hole I've made a killing on buying cheap gear.

Good luck - there are some bargins to be had.
