    Hi, I found a (more or less rare) PS2 software I want on a Yahoo store and I'd like someone to buy it and send it to me afterwards. You will of course get money for your effort. Or if someone knows the name of a deputy service wich deals with purchases from online stores and not just Yahoo's auctions, it will do as well. Thanks in advance.

    edit:I don't know if I should have posted the request in the Marketplace instead, if so, a moderator can move or remove my thread.

    I'll do it but you must pay up front before any bids. If you decide that you don't want the item after bidding, tough, no backing out or refund. You must understand that there are loads of extra charges such as Bank or Post Office transfer to pay the seller, postage to me, postage to you, PayPal's F*ing 5% and of course the commission :) which all depends on what you are buying (Rare, cost, common etc...)

    was it a yahoo shop (Nothing to do with Yahoo Auctions) ? If so then that's news to me. I thought they only did yahoo auction stores.

    Some of those places will order from online shops. The thing is, it's not automated at all, so sometimes they will butt ream you on the comission.
