Namely in my futile attempts to find CFS2 anywhere in Finland, even as used. I used to have it, then sold it to a mate when buying Il-2 and now I've got itch, no:rash, to get it again. So, pretty please, if anyone would have an extra copy or (for some odd reason) wants to get rid off his game, I'm more than willing to bargain, err, pay money for it. Real money, guys! Woohoo! I'm sure we can negotiate about methods of payment. Nothing kinky, though
No but seriously- this is getting a bit obsessive business, so help a fellow pilot if you can.
Thx

Wish I could use Amazon, since they have nine used CFS2s but they say they cannot ship it over here. Just my luck- so close but so far away Heh, this is getting borderline absurd but that's life, eh?

[quote author=Hagar link=board=cfs2;num=1089820640;start=0#3 date=07/14/04 at 17:30:22]Amazon is an international company. Maybe one of their other sites could help. Just an idea.

I'd completely forgotten about that . Good thing you reminded about it But still no dice. It's available in two locations but they won't ship because their payment policies: I trust only cold, hard cash, not plastic. Well, I'm sure eventually a copy turns out somewhere that I can get so all that is needed is patience. However, my offer still stands: wanna become rich quickly? Let's do business

Success! With a help of my mate, today I finally managed to place an order at Amazon UK Hot diggity! Now it's just a matter of figuring out gow to place further oders. Don't carry plastic (conscientious objector in this) and drawing and mailing a check is enourmously expensive and time consuming. But hey, thx for help (big nod to Hagar for Amazon pointer)! Effective immediately, my offer to buy CFS2 is now off

Glad to see I'm not the only one who's had/still does have suspicions about credit cards. But in my case it actually does boil down to managing finances. I have a regular job but there are periods when there's very little  or no work, followed by spouts of very busy times indeed. This makes balancing your economy a bit tricky and I don't definitely want a biggish bill during 'dry season' , after having paid rent, phone etc. Being able to pay when you actually do have cash is much easier and safer. These days it's all too easy to get a mark to your credit records. Just have to grin and bear until the situation eventually sorts itself out, like with a direct payment to recipients account via web bank.

??? Huh? You mean they eat people who don't like plastic or what? Should I bring a gun?

Got it I better do something about it then, 'cause planning a longish trip there next summer

Aye, I've been thinking about it. They have more payment options and the debit card method sure is handy. A lot cheaper, too. My UK Amazon CFS2 was something like 14 Euros (can't remember for sure now) + VAT etc., but there you can get the same stuff with 1/4 of that, even less. Of course, it's also a tad riskier in using eBay but you just have to be more careful who're dealing with. Still, a valid option.
