I am trying to order 3 items from this uk-based site ( which does not ship items abroad ). Maybe someone of you can help me with this spares, as finding them in Italy is almost impossible, unfortunately. I can easily pay them ( postage and all ) with paypal,if you could buy them and send them...

Please post some picks so we can see your ebay find and give some good suggestions !
