You _can_ get the Connect store credit if you register the Reader, and then lie about being in the US. There is a recent topic on the forum.

According to the USPS website, the shipping cost to Germany is about $40 for a shipping time of 3 to 5 days with insurance and a tracking number.

Frankly, I _prefer_ Paypal over wire transfer. Send a message to my Ebay name, and I will reply to your email to confirm my identity.

- how much would shipping be for that destination?
- would the reader be unused/brand new and does it come with a Connect store credit?
- would you accept a PayPal payment?
- as this purchase would be based solely on trust, would you be willing to give me some more information about you(maybe an Ebay-ID) and send me a picture of those five Readers when they arrive? Please do not take this the wrong way but sending a rather large amount of money to a complete stranger makes me slightly nervous ;-)

Cheers,
Volker
