• My only experience of buying using GSP was to get a Timbuk2 bag sent over from the US (it was cheaper and in better nick than anything available from within the EU). I think I paid £20 for the bag and about the same for postage and import fees etc.

    Considering UK sellers wanted upwards of £40 for worn out bags and closer to £100 for ones in similarly minty condition plus generally around £10 postage it was a no brainer.

  • Yep that's good I didn't mean buyers in the pejorative sense.

    It's also for sellers who want to ship internationally but don't want the hassle. You have to be absolutely rock solid on the quality and description of your item though.

    Aye sorry, I didn’t take offence even though my ardent defence of the GSP maybe made it sound like I did! I just have found it pretty good, mostly from the seller side but also as a buyer.

    Maybe I’ve just been lucky and haven’t happened to cross paths with any foreign Cuntbuyers™ but the sales I’ve made using it have all went off without a hitch.

    In fact, I’d even go as far as to say that I’ve had less hassle with GSP sales compared to domestic ones.
