Default Re: 1920s Grebe radio 'restricted' by ebay Global Shipping Programme

It's pot luck if stuff gets through or not.
As well as tube based equipment & parts, they may seize items described as magnetic or spark (e.g. the 1920's Eisemann magneto my Dad lost to the GSP system).

Also be aware that they have lower maximum size & weight limitations for parcels, than USPS or other shipping companies. The same applies if we send stuff out of the UK using the GSP.

And they do pass some seized items to resellers in the country of origin, to recoup some of their loses, if I could remember the name of the largest reseller it would give more clues to items they don't like.
