The contact a local for help thread.

Hi Snakyearrow, and welcome to the forums.
The 50 posts rule is only for selling stuff; there's no minimum posts for buying

I'd suggest that you open a WTB thread (in the Want To Buy forum) with the items you are interested in buying.

Enjoy your stay!

 

I can offer help where I can to anyone in the san antonio / austin area, soldering jobs, chip flashing (PIC or EPROM), etc

 

I want to buy a game from ebay, but the seller only ships to the USA. So, could someone buy it for me and send it to Brazil, please? If someone agrees with this, send me a pm. Thanks.

I live in the US and am offering my services to ship stuff world wide. Depending on the shipping cost, I may cover it myself if cheap enough, split it, or have you cover it from my address to yours. PM me for location details and any requests. Be warned that I live in a rural location and get to town once a week. My shipping methods will be primarily through the US mail service but can discuss details on alternate methods if needed.

EDIT: I'm also soon getting stuff to soft mod original Xbox systems. Also will offer HDD upgrade services once I figure it out on my own machine. Once I get going, I should be able to offer these services as well as loading up software. PM me for details on what you want. May also be able to offer other mods depending on what you want. No extreme mods like case mods and such. Simple stuff like HDD upgrades, soft mod, mod chip install, software loading, multi-HDD conversions, LED installs and such. I have really good soldering skills so don't be worried about me making a mess. To better discuss the details you will want, contact me via Skype. User name there is same as mine here. You can also PM me for my cell number to talk it over. Be warned for those of other languages, I speak only English so if you don't, have a "translator" discuss it with me. MY prices should be fair for what I'm offering. I use USD so be sure to have you currency amount converted to that for the value only. I have PayPal and can take most world currency.

As a side note, I can also do mods to other systems to like region mods for Sega Genesis/ Megadrive, and other simple things like that.

Not offering these services as of yet but will update this once I can. Gotta wait for my junk to arrive.

 

I'm looking for some european console packs which I've found in sweden and the netherlands, but most of the sellers over Tradera and Marktplaats only send items within their countries, so if any board member from those two countries could lend me a hand it'd be much appreciated.

 

Snakeyearrow, the 50 posts thing is a guideline, not a rule.
Everybody is free to help you and you are free to ask for help, it's up to the helper to decide to help you or not, based on your post count or whatever the reason may be.

 

FYI anyone wanting help from an Imperialist American Dog can PM me. My name is on the list and I don't often read this thread.

 

Yeah, people, you can send PMs. Nobody really read this to help.
I see some people just posting here and waiting for help, but you can freely send a PM if needed.

 

Hey guys, need a Canadian that would be willing to forward a package from Sears.ca to me. Ill pay of course.

 

i need some French people or people who can speak french with ebay accounts. The helpers of the countries seems not active here! hahaha

 

What kind of help you need ?

 

i can help too

 

I'm looking for help from someone living in south korea. I'm trying to track down samsung saturn stuff, and its extremely hard to find just within korea alone. Finding it outside is virtually impossible.
I'm willing to pay (through paypal) for someone living there to search, find, buy, and ship samsung saturn stuff to me. I'll pay for:
Searching
Buying
Shipping

PM me if you can do this. Thanks!

 

Hi there,
could do with some help from any members in the Netherlands to buy two items from maarkplatz and ship them to me, I can offer a small reward but the items in question are tiny and cheap, so low risk.
Kind regards

Anyone here happeb to live in new zealand? I want to get some small stuff shipped from there, ill pay for everything plus reward. Thanks!

 

No problem, PM me the details!

 

Need some help with buying on yahoo japan auctions. Don't know how it generally works, but I expect I'd need to pay a deposite or something. Looking to buy a few psp's.

 

Yeah... I've been considering that for the Celebi bonus disc. Or even Tales of Destiny Director's Cut. Cheaper in japan with some patience.

 

I use FromJapan as a proxy service. Their fees are quite descent.
