Beem there, done that. Have my address here and my folks address there
as valid ship to addresses. But spend a bit of time on ebay.au looking
at tools. Not the best selection would be charitable compared to the
cornucopia of stuff available on the US ebay. Much of it is import, and
most of it is fairly expensive. I did however manage to bag a current
TAFE book for the Fitter/Turner classes. It duplicates a lot of info I
have in other books, but covers areas relevant to my current work that
is not covered in anything in my library. Which is 7000 miles away...

I've heard Amazon.uk shipping to AU often beats shipping from US, have
to look into that. I knew what I was getting in to when I moved here,
it's just the price I pay for good healthy (albeit expensive) food,
clean air and beautiful countryside.

Indeed. Ive purchased a goodly number of things from the Ebay.uk site
as well. Particularly Royal Enfield motorcycle parts and Whitworth
tools and fasteners
