Anyone in Moscow?

One of the reasons could be the cost of postage, that can often make the price not so fantastic. Certainly getting stuff from private sellers doesn't come with the same postage discounts that big organizations (Amazon) can manage.

One example (several years ago now) consisted of a plastic container. Container's cost was about $23, but the postage to get it here was $120 or so. It takes pride of place as being nearly the most expensive postage for an item we've ever bought.
