Title: I need a favor
Post by: Batz on May 20, 2011, 01:42:38 AM

OK guys checkout this

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350463448482&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Now I would like this torch but the seller only sells to US residents, anyone interested in buying this for me and forwarding to Australia?
Shipping would be $48.00-$50.00 going by other torches I have bought. Now for that price I'm not willing to pay a fortune for the actual item. So anyone willing to help out a mate down under?  I can repay you via paypal.

Much appreciated, I can bid, pay, and have it sent to your address. Then I'll pay you postage to Australia.
Cheers 4 that Pawaw, PMing you now.

I would not do that to my worst enemy, VB is crap beer. Perhaps a 6 pac of Little Creatures?

Nice little Aussie micro. that.

Unless you could get hold of one of my beers, because I'm one of the best home brewers in Australia...just ask me  ;D :D

I see torches at yard sales all the time.  Are you locked in on Turners, or just blow torches in general?  Usually less than $10 US.

Some of your own would be great, but shipping might be a problem!

Hi DM&FS,
No I'm not locked into Turner torches at all, I do however own many torches and knowing which ones I want could be a problem. I'm interested in flat tank or 'auto' blow torches if you see any. Like the one pictured.
Thanks to all the members here for the help, this really is a friendly site.

I'm no expert on design or brand name, so if you were to post a couple more visuals on the styles you collect, that will help me out a bunch.  Also throw out a few other brand names if you could.
