Go on then, Groan...

One should note "the regulars" also like turning perfectly proper discussions into spam threads...

Count me in as a [1].

I'd like to order a book from Amazon.co.uk (Tolkien related). However, the seller only ships to UK addresses. Would anyone be willing to allow me to send the book to your UK address and then you could mail the book to my US address? I'll pay to have it sent to your home (I just need your address) and I'll pay you through Paypal for the extra shipping plus whatever you think is fair for your time. Message me if you are available and willing to do this. No rush with the shipping--it is just a secondary work on Tolkien I'd like to own.

I would like to "borrow" someone's UK address so that I can make a bid on eBay that only ships to the UK. I've already messaged the seller about shipping to the US and they agreed and sent me an estimate to ship to the US, but the listing won't let me bid because it was originally set to UK buyers only and someone already bid. According to the seller, they can no longer change this.

If you are able to help, please PM me. Thanks so much!

Ordinarily, I'd be able to help via my in-laws who do the same for me, but with the UK being COVID-ridden I don't want them anywhere near a post office (or out of their house, basically). Unfortunately I still have numerous books stranded in the UK with no end in sight.

Stu, I totally understand.

Trotter, thanks for the help!

Can you not just randomly pick a UK address; a business address for example? I've got a US address on my Amazon.us account (for some purpose unclear to me now...) as "Miskatonic University, Providence"!

That is a good point, but I wanted an address I knew just in case the seller accidentally sent the book to the UK address by mistake. I could at least still get the book. That was my thinking...

I can help or relay from France
